I had this posted on the Pow wow.

Well, after shaking what has been the worst bronchitus for the last month. I finally didn't alert every deer in a 100 yard radius with a coughing episode Saturday night.  I had seen this deer three weeks earlier.  He had been spooked by a fellow hunter.  I saw him and two other bucks running across a field in front of me.  I said that's a big six.  Well long story short, he came in to the flat I was hunting to check his scrape.  He was met with a single bevel grizzly on a 55-75 gold tip (540 gr. arrow) from my confidence bow, my Blacktail Elite, 57@29.5", 62" bow.  Here he is for the hero shots the next morning:

   

 

 

Chart says he was 152 live weight.  Thanx to my hunting brother Danny (Two Hats) for helping me drag him out and being my photographer.
