PA 8-point
I've attached a link to see the pictures of my 8-pointer I took in Bucks County on the opening day of gun season (took him with my bow). He was bedded 25 yards from me after first light. I tired of waiting for him to get up and feared another hunter that was cold or hungry might spook him leaving the woods. So at 10:30 I started to stalk toward him. It took an hour to go 15 yards on the frozen leaves (potato chips), but I got within 10 yards before putting an arrow through his neck. It was then that I realized that he had a broken leg and wasn't going anywhere...a trophy just the same. Enjoy the pictures!

Nice buck Bill! And I agree with Davidmil, he might have been slowed up a bit, but one bum wheel won't keep him in one spot.
Thats a heckuva buck for heavily hunted Bucks county.

man thats a nice PA buck...id have to call you nuts for taking a bow out in our gun season though! lol...thats a pretty good accomplishment to take a nice buck like that in PA rifle season..all the deer i seen the first day were spooked except the very first one we seen right before we could see...the doe i shot was with a bunch of others and they were moving good and hard when they came through...the pressure is crazy...i couldnt imagine stalking a deer on the first day of buck season...expessially this year..i duno about over there but in the NW we had about 4 inches of snow and everything stuck out like a sore thumb..and every little twig cracked when it was bumped...congrats to you!
