We have been watching this guy for the last few months and he pretty much stayed nocturnal. He finally started coming out here in there in the mornings. Sunday morning while I was waiting in the pop up for my dad to come get me, I had put my bow and rifle down waiting. I had the phone up checking text messages and looking at facebook haha. I just happened to look up at 30-35 yards and he was staring at me like he was ready to go. I leaned back out of sight and grabbed the rifle. Needless to say he ran about 75 yards from where I shot him. My dad and I walked all over the place looking for him and he actually kicked over right in the middle of our ranch road! I had a couple more pics but for some reason the new photobucket won't let me upload them. We have him measured at 22" inside spread at his widest point. This is certainly my biggest. Here are a couple pics of before and after.  And after

Absolutely beautiful. Congrats.
One of these days I'll get ol' facemask.
Realistically, no, I probably won't. But I won't stop trying.

Sweet!! Congrats on a wide spread.
 It's the time spent in God's creation with family and friends making memories that counts.
