I might have been too quick on the trigger but it is what it is.....  It was my first sit of the year, 2 hours into it he ran to the base of the stand. I grabbed the bow and drew it, he took two bounds and stopped to look back. The pin settled on the boiler room and I squeezed 'er off. ![[Linked Image]](http://i131.photobucket.com/albums/p301/lscott_06/IMG_0677%204_zpsx0xk4ru4.jpg)

Beautiful buck, congrats!

They say everything happens for a reason.
For me that reason is usually because I've made some bad decisions that I need to pay for.

I'd have taken that shot, easily. Congrats!

Ive bow hunted my whole life, in several countries and for many species of game.
Even with that I can say that every bow killed animal is an accomplishment. I respectfully disagree that you were too quick on the trigger. There is a dead buck that you recovered, thats a win by any measure. More antler mass is simply a bonus!
I'm about taxidermied ( is this a word) out in my life. I'm just as good with shooting does and cows today. Although I still have a passion collecting big bear skulls, and wild boar with long teeth!
Good job, no regrets, it's meat in the freezer!
