Nice buck and great story Gary! Congrats! I havn't been out yet but the anticipation is driving me crazy! Trying to setup for Halloween weekend and early November as much as possible. I'm self employed with family obligations and work like most. Can't be out near as much as I'd like. Seeing your post gets me stoked. Thanks! If I tagged out early I would probably hunt hard for next year with a camera in my hand. A lot to learn, always a morsel of info waiting to be found. I would be doing this with a big smile, enjoying the harvest of a beautiful pre-rut buck. Good Job!
