Don't worry your number 1 on the hunting buddy list Big Fox, I just didn't want to call you right away because I knew you were in your stand hunting. Should have text you but my mind wasn' very calm at the time. Thanks for all the great comments guys, much appreciated.

Talk about opening the season with a bang! Or maybe, in this case, a THWANG!

Brett thanks for the kind words and your 100% correct every season is different and I am almost 100% sure this is the same big 8 point I passed on opening day of last years season. He was only a 115" to 120" deer last year and I am very happy I passed on him as he put on at least 15 to 20 more inches of horn and his body got huge. I passed on allot of great bucks last year and didn't even kill a whitetail buck all season but when your after a certain kind of buck I am ok with going a whole season without killing a buck. I think for sure I made the right choice on letting this great buck live another year.

I can't wait to see more pictures! My buddy got his first deer ever Saturday night! He shot a mature doe that weighed about 100lb. He made a great shot at 20yds! He has been "training" with me all summer! We worked hard to pick the right bow and all his accessories. He has been shooting great and set a 30 yard limit for himself! He put it all together and connected on his first ever shot at a white tail!! Keep hunting and post some pics boys!
