I remember your original post with the pictures...absolutely incredible then and no less incredible NOW!

I`m curious...looking back, did you have a feeling that you listened to and thats why you knocked an arrow?

Congrats!  :campfire:

Yes sir! After seeing how the knob of trees jutted out into that cut bean field and it was the highest point sloping down on all 3 sides. I felt like it was the perfect place for a big old buck to bed up. So I knocked an arrow and went into stealth mode.  :)

Wow, what a beauty and as mentioned above, "stalking" on the ground no less. What an incredible accomplishment.  I don't think the cliche "there's nowhere to go but up" applies to you!   ;)  

Congratulations.  :thumbsup:    :thumbsup:    :thumbsup:

Congratulations on a monster of a buck!  Is the 187 a net score or gross?  Just curious, I see the one abnormal point, and wondered if the score included it or after the deduction?  Regardless it's an absolute trophy of a lifetime and I in no way am being negative here...

That is his gross score. I never worry about net score. That's P&Y idea that a rack has to be perfect not mine. lol
Thanks for the kind words Sir...

Well done sir! So happy for you.
Having done so much, with so little, for so long, I can now do anything with nothing.
