REALLY????? I put in hour after hour every hunting season and was finally fortunate enough to have a deer of a lifetime walk in front of me. And it's one of the best days of my life and some of you wanna hate?!?!
How dare you. Hope you sleep good. And he's 100% free range in the mountains of Pelham al! Thanks for all the congrats from everyone else though!!
A memory I'll never forget!! You haven't been here long have you, LOL. This place will bite the hand that feeds them. Congrats on a fine buck, but expect to be questioned, finger printed, some DNA samples will be needed from the buck, stomach contents from the buck, copy of your hunting license, proof of Alabama residence, a typed, double spaced letter from your pastor of your integrity, a lie detector test, and a detailed report of how the hunt was conducted, what equipment was used, what you ate before the hunt, and whether you peed from your stand, put it in a container, or just sat in misery and peed all over yourself after seeing the deer. It's Aldeer, get used to it. God Bless, David B. This ^ Fine deer right there. Outstanding job!

That's exactly right!! I wasn't gonna put Their names out there but oh well!! Very fine place and Kent and Grant are 2 of the nicest people I've ever met! Grant even offered to let me use his bow bc we both have a bigger passion for archery then rifle !! The free range side is absolutely beautiful!! I was sitting on a mountain side towards the top part and you look down into the bottom. Got to the stand at 2:45. Seen a couple does and two more small bucks chasing. And I heard something about 3:15. It was him. 50 yards in front but to my right a little bit. He got behind some stuff so I didn't take the shot and he disappeared. 5 minutes later he somehow snuck within 20 yards straight below me. ( can't see bc the ladder is wrapped with a blind around it. ) he sees me and takes off into the bottom. He gone. I'm sick. Texting dad and telling him about I seen a monster. And blah blah blah. Sat the phone down just kept lookin along and at 3:39 I caught movement about 60 yards into the bottom and it was him trying his best to sneak through all wearily and sneaky. I yelled at him and his shoulder had limbs in front of it so I had to take the lethal neck shot!! He flipped backwards and was done for! I was using a Tikka 7mm08. Grant guess the deer will gross around 170. One of my buddy's pulled tape. Not accurate. But a good guess!! Thanks everyone

Great deer congrats.
I imagine he will be 150s gross. Maybe a little less
Do you want to hear him gobble, or do you want to kill him.

You forgot rectal examination; that's why so many in here smell like shucks 'cause they like to crawl up your *ss whenever you post pics of your kills... LOL Nice buck, dude! BGD

Thanks I appreciate it. But I guess the pics aren't doing him justice.
He's rough scored at 168 1/4.
I could take more pics if needed he's in my deep freezer. But once he drys for I think the game warden said 60 days then I can get him scored offically!! Counting down the days You can have it officially scored with Buckmasters and Alabama Whitetail Records now. Neither of them require a drying time. Look up Steve Lucas on Facebook he's the regional director for Buckmasters and he is an official scorer for both organizations. If you don't have Facebook but you are interested in having him score your deer, send me a message on here and I'll give you his number.

Killed at my good buddy's place in Pelham called Double Mountain preserve. He has high fence and free range. Really good genes grant and kent upton have gotten put together at their farm. So was this a high fence or free range kill?
Ya'll are just overthinking it now

Lots of times the high Fence deer escape and become free range deer from my experience. Regardless awesome deer and great story. I have not seen any chasing at my house in pelham yet this year, it's usually around Christmas time. Congrats on a great trophy!
