I thought about Jeff...

And I thought about all the other great Bucks I have seen come off this Ranch
.... And then I looked up and to the left and thought "OH S#$@".

All I saw was horns sticking out 4 inches past this deers body.... ON BOTH SIDES!!!!!!!


I instantly thought"I am going to shoot this buck if he gives me an opportunity."

He then immediately turned and faced me. All I could see was horns and hams.

This went on for at least 3 minutes. But it seemed like an eternity.

Finally he turned broadside. My heart was pounding so loudly I knew he would surely hear it..

I aimed at his heart and ended up spining him. After two follow up arrows he was done. I don't have any field pictures hopefully Terry, Gregg and Mike will post some. Here he is

He was aged at 8 1/2 years. Inside was 20 1/4 inches. All David said was "You shot my deer" I'll put some more shots up soon.

Congrats again Michael.

I was last to be picked up that night but there was nothing better to walk to the back of the truck and see him laying there.

Getting the story first hand from Michael on the way back in was a real treat as well.

congratulations Michael !  killing an 8 1/2 year old buck is something to be proud of, does'nt matter what kind of headgear he has, that's a bonus. Great buck !

After I had climbed down shivering from my stand after seeing a couple of does and one buck at a distance we headed over to pick up Michael.  He came to the truck with a nonchalant "You need to drive around to load something I shot"  a few more hints and we knew it was buck, but weren't ready for the giant we saw.  We were all excited for him.  I snapped a couple of picts of Michael with the big boy. Here is the best one.
 
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.
