Ya, Chuck I am glad I passed that smaller 8 point a few weeks ago!
Ryan, your right. I don't think I'll be able to top that one anytime soon...... ;)

Thanks guys. No score yet. I'm guessing its going to be real close to making pope and young after deductions. Could go either way.

 Right on Ryan, Way to go!! I could feel the excitement just reading the story. Congratulations on a dandy buck.  Sometimes it's those days where your just about to quit when the blessing is right around the corner. Way to hang in there and tuff it out.   Keenan ;)

Ryan, Did you age the buck?  He looks quite mature. Pat

Really proud for you Ryan, very impressive harvest and good shooting under tough conditions. Really is hard to stay in the stand when conditions are miserable. Beautiful buck and awsome bow.    Kenneth

Thank you guys. I'm still in disbelief.
Pat, no I should call the taxidermist and ask him to save me a jaw bone. We are guessing he's a 4 1/2" year old deer.
