Thanks everyone.  I grew up in Pike co.  I am very lucky indeed.
I've hunted almost every day of my life.....the rest were just wasted

I know there are some monsters killed in McKean County every year.  And Elk County where I grew up and still hunt.  But that is a monster.  Congrats on a great shot.

Jimneye- Well done! You used the right call at the right time. One day last week I saw ten diffrent bucks, and called four of them in to 15 yards using the grunt call. The ones that came in were alone and cruising. But they were all 2 1/2 or 3 1/2 year olds that I gave pass to. Good shooting as well, and holding it together through the pressure. Mike

Ok I'm moving!! I've only seen 2 deer all season. A doe and a spike!
Congrats on one heck of an awesome deer!!!
