Amen SKane. One of my all time faves, son's first bird almost 25 years ago. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/C4QVQKR.jpg)
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

Greatest for me has little to do with biggest, heck, I didn't even pull the trigger. My dad, 7 months after a pretty scary stroke. I was beneath his tree in a cedar thicket and rattled this buck to him - couldn't see the deer but I could watch him prepare and take the shot. Allergies kicked in soon thereafter. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/udvDi5S.jpg) Great pic. Thank you for sharing!

I am guessing this is my ‘greatest’ buck but I have never scored him nor any of my others that are of the same rough maturity and size. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/phu4jHw.jpg)

Killed this 11 pt 202 lb bruiser last Friday. I've killed heavier bucks and one with more points but this is my best overall. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/4OF7Oty.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/tV3AsXr.jpg)

No sir…that was within walking distance of the Elk Horn bar in Bondurant. This is my best Montana buck (I think). ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/T2YnCHd.jpg)

My best memories, aren't of big bucks, they are sitting in this double ladder stand; ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/F49s39I.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/yvNFfzW.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/fUrmeqs.jpg) Beside my Wife, Deb & our Son, Doug, being part of them starting out & acquiring the hunting bug ! Obviously, they have both taken bigger animals since, but I'll cherish that hunting year, above all others ! So proud of both of them.
Paul.
