Got in the stand at 5:30, a little before 6:30 I hear thrashing of tree limbs. I can make out at about 80 yards a buck getting after a cedar and making a scrape. At this point I’m counting the minutes and begging the sun to rise faster so I can make it out. He begins to move off and towards me. By this point it’s just a few minutes past 6:30 and enough light for me to make out he’s one I would be happy with. He walked within 28 yards. I’m thinking 130’s, 10 point with kickers front and back, good mass, heavy body, . He’s definitely a keeper in my book. Heard 5 shoots the rest of the morning. Saw a group of young bucks and a little bit of chasing. All in all a great day. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2020/11/full-40625-263215-d20edcc0_934e_425c_8f02_53df317f811f.jpeg)

I would think he would be a keeper. Hope so since you got him now, it’s past catch an release time. Nice buck congrats.
At some point in life its time to quit chasing the pot of gold and just enjoy the rainbow. FR

Solid buck, looks like you can almost call him an 11 if that is a kicker
