Thank You Battue.

Great original thread and great outcome. Nice job Battue on a real woods Fall experience. Bob would be proud to be attached to something like this.

Again, thanks to all. It will go on the wall, but it will be a European mount.

"Ya. let's do it." 30minutes or so later 4 Does and this guy came running out at around 50yards. Got on him and finally was running the cross hairs in sync. He hit an opening and I hit the trigger. Saw him hunch in the scope and figured I hit middle on my side with a little angle on the other. Got another off to no effect. Went up and found hair and blood and the further I went the more there was. He made it perhaps 60 yards before going down. I think Bob would approve of the shot.

Not much else to say. It happened quick and there wasn't any time to think about it. I hunted every day, saw many Deer, and this was the fourth Buck.
