Alright..Finally back home.So I started a thread opening day bout me grazing a wide 8 point.I was pretty sure it wasn't a fatal shot cause I only found white hair and zero blood.I was hoping to get another shot on him and this afternoon about 5:15 he came out easing across a hillside in the clearcut I hunt about 150yards or so out.I was actually watching a few does about 250 or so yard out in the cutover and kept hearing crunch noises coming from in front of me but just figured it was birds or something. I came outta the binos from watching the does and caught a glimpse of a deer on the hillside and immediately knew it was a buck.Looked through the binos and I bout chitted on myself.Got the gun up,found him in the scope and boom.I knew it was a good shot but he ran.I heard him tearing stuff up for Maybe 4-5 seconds then it stopped so I knew he had either stopped running or fell.He ended up going maybe 30 yards.He's not any kinda monster or anything but he's the biggest I've killed so far and I'm tickled to death with him.I told my wife last week i wasn't going back hunting till my daughter got out on the 18th for Christmas but for some reason I just really wanted to go this afternoon. Glad I did cause it paid off!
