Thanks for the warm welcome everyone!!! Yes this is my best buck to date. I have him on my trailcam once and saw him in early archery season and again in gun season with no shot and does taking him the other direction. The area I'm hunting is 400 acres of private ground that sits right behind my house. This hunt was an afternoon hunt with alot of action early and then I see 6 does moving from the left to the right with this 10 point in tow heading away from me AGAIN!!! After about 3 minutes I decide to abandon my stand and do a big circle and go to where their heading and try a sneak. After 2 hrs this guy is down in a field not 100 yrds behind my house. It was a 80 yrd shot with him bounding away with his tail in the air like he wasn't hit at all and me saying how did I miss him??? He reaches the does gets in the middle like he is protected and turns and looks back at me like "what was that" and just drops!! 210 lbs dressed and is being mounted as we speak!! Mark T

Cool story!
Great hunt, greatbuck. Welcome!
