That's one He!! of a Buck. Good for you. It sure is fun when they come running by. I killed my first Buck over 50 years ago on a deer drive in New Jersey. He was only a 6 point, but he came running past me at 35-40 yards. I unloaded 3 shots of 00B with my Rem 1100 12Ga. and he folded up. It was pretty exciting for a young teenager. Been hooked ever since.
