Got this buck at my son's place in Columbia this morning. I was in my stand for about 2 minutes and he came over the ridge about 50 yards out on the prowl! I stayed in my stand for about 10 minutes after the shot to calm down but I could see one side of his rack sticking up so I knew he was done. My son sent me some pics of him in the food plot at 4:30 this morning. I'm like, nice to know he's close, but it never works out for me - until today! Gave him a nice ride to the truck on my Cabela's Super Mag Hauler! My scale says 205. I'm going to have to check it. He seems about 20 lbs lighter than the one I got last year, but maybe I'm much stronger now! First buck with my new Cooper as well! What a great fall day!

That is a super buck, congratulations.
I love the shop/garage/whatever too, but it's so squared away it's obviously owned by mad man. LOL

Nice Buck, Congrats! You going to have to straighten that shop up some though, before picture taking and all.

I too noticed the “Neat as a Pin” shop and figured we’re dealing with one sick bastard!! I hope you have some doe tags left, you certainly don’t have any shop duty’s to perform. (Grin).

Nice buck!
+1 on the shop comments. Mine is a danger zone.

Nice deer. What caliber of rifle? It's a 280AI shooting the factory Nosler Trophy Grade 140 Accubond load. It's a hammer on deer.. Thanks for the comments on the barn! I guess I'm kind of anal about it but I spend a lot of time out there ...

Nice buck! I have to ask do you leave your crossbow cocked when it is hanging in the shop? I don't think you are supposed to do that.
