Actually I passed 2 bucks better than this guy hoping to see a really big buck but never did. ( Damit )
I really wanted a Texas buck so took this guy the last opportunity I was going to have.

Very nice! Congrats. Is this hunt a surrogate for your normal Coues trip?

Thanks pointer.
No, we did the coues trip also. A friend has the pictures of that hunt but is in New Zealand for another week.
I got to spend a lot of time with my 84 year old dad on that trip and didn't hunt much, so I did not take a coues deer this year. But had a great time with family and friends!

Good deal! Hunting with Dad, as well as friends and family, is always a good excuse to spend time/money to travel to hunt. I lost mine 6yrs ago and would give anything for one more day in the field with him.
