I was at the right place at the right time on Saturday evening. This buck showed up in the brush for a few minutes and then decided to head out. He never would step out to give me a good view. There was a small opening he had to cross and i'll be darn if he didn't stop to stretch and give me a shot in that small opening. It didnt take me long to decide I needed to take aim.I let the 25-06 send down the 117 sst and he ran about 25 yards. This buck was 195lbs on the hoof.

Nice buck!
What county did you get him in?
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.
