As I pulled up to the office this morning I got the text from dad cold wet morning here... doe and spike at feeder... doe and fawn to west... he is here, and a minute later he is down! Couldn't be happier for my old man.
The drought this spring/summer put a hurting on his tine length from last year, but we have him at 5 years old and he fit the management so a fond memory and trophy on the wall and some good grub he will become.

Just got a weight, he was 185 live which is tied for the heaviest we have taken off the place. The rains in September/October fattened them up nicely, shame it was too late for the antlers.

Beauty of a buck. Great that your Dad could get him. Always neat when you have a history with a buck too.

Once i learned that i didn't "NEED" to kill something, and that if i did kill something all the fun stopped and work began, i was a much better hunter.

Thanks again.

I hadn't really noticed yet, but the after shot photo shows his hocks to be fluffy and dry. Rut not going yet in our part of the world. In years past this deer was a scrapper, usually breaking many tines before the end of the year. We unfortunately never have found any of his sheds.

Feels great when you can harvest a mature buck that is the target and you have a history with.
