Hey guys thanks a lot. I called this deer "Barnacle Bill". He was one of the longest and heaviest bucks I've ever taken. Guru he had a 22" neck and was exactly 8" from eye to nose tip. I didn't weigh him due to it's very warm here and I was scrambling all last night to get him worked up. Teeth look to me like he was a 4-1/2 year old.

I have many trail cam photos of him along with a another great 10 pointer he was running with. I really wanted him do to he is a year or two older and more mature than the young 10.

Notice my treestand in the first black and white photo. I had my trail camera running when I shot him right in front of it so hopefully I got something good on it at time of impact with me in the background in the stand. I'll check it out tonight.

Thanks for all the ataboy's

T.J.
