Maybe not “really big” but pretty big. Pre-cell phone, early 90’s traditional archery whitetail, just 2-3 mi into SD from Iowa after a snow storm. -20* day but in the rut and killed about 10:00 a.m. A doe came and laid down about 20 ft. from the base of my tree while I was shivering ucontrollably about 15’ up. He came by nose down and stopped near the doe allowing about a 8-10 yard shot. I could barely get to full-draw on my 57# recurve as I had been sitting since 6:30. In fact, I was about 60% draw and the hit was not where intended as I hit him through the neck. I had been after him awhile as were some others. Great story and equally great buck there George.

It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.
