Great buck, congratulations!
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.

Congratulations Kelly.

All I can say is sometimes Karma is a beautiful lady. With your service to the country and the work you did for us on the bench, you deserve that deer and experience. And how cool for your son to spot the deer for you, he must have been over the moon.
Keep the wind in your face and the sun at your back.

Congratulations on a beautiful buck!!!  :thumbsup:
To me, the ultimate challenge in bowhunting is not how far away you can succesfully make a killing shot but rather how close you can get to the animal before shooting.

That is a beauty.  I guess there is a reason they say the 3rd time's the charm.  Congrats!
