We have had pictures of this buck since 2010 and I have been hunting him since 2011 with my bow. I had 1 close encounter with him each of the past 2 years and he just got lucky and didnt give me a good shot. Also saw him a couple times while rifle hunting but decided to let him pass. I had been hunting him hard again this year with my bow with no luck and saturday decided to get out the 270. Sure enough the old guy came in and I was able to lay him down. Heres some pics of him through the years. 2010 @ 3.5   2011 @ 4.5  2012 @ 5.5   2013 @ 6.5   And now on the ground   Looked at his teeth and was able to confim his age at 6.5. He weighed 160 lbs on the hoof and field dressed 127lbs. I scored him at 118 5/8". This is one the score dosnt mean anything to me. I was just happy to get a fully mature buck that I had a lot of history with and been after for so long.

If you shoot a young deer because a neighbor will shoot it, you are that neighbor.

It's always special when it's a buck you've had some history with. Congrats!

If I send my neighbors a text and ask them to give me feedback on my lawn and plant rye into a giant dong pattern, I'm probably going to get some less than positive feedback. Same goes here.
