I've been watching this buck for 3 seasons. He started out as a young double drop tine which was hard to pass. Last season he had no drop tines but also broke several points during the velvet. This season he blew up and there would be no passing if I got the opportunity. He has been noctural for over a month until today. Praise the Lord for a true arrow flight. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2023/10/full-5542-402151-20231007_194453.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2023/10/full-5542-402152-screenshot_20231007_194905_messages.jpg)

That is a fine Buck and good story. Thanks for sharing nothing like watching a buck grow and then being able to harvest him.

Real good looking buck. Extra special with the bow and having passed him before. Score? Weight?

At some point in life its time to quit chasing the pot of gold and just enjoy the rainbow. FR Keep your gratitude higher than your expectations. RWH

That’s an awesome deer.
What county did you get him in?
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

He’s a dandy, neat you have history with him too.
