I'm posting this for Deadeyedel. He's done it again...shot this battle scarred warrior while walking around. He said it had punctures and scratches all over the place and was nearly as gray as him. "One old geezer got another," as he put it. Note the coffee thermos.... that makes the pic if you know the man. (Also the orange hat is in the tree because he had swapped hats by the time the photo was taken. Just wanted to head off the conspiracy theorists.) In his own words: "I have set up in that stand all bow season, all weekend, all morning or afternoon no problem and passed more small bucks than I can remember. However yesterday morning the wind stopped blowing and the rain from the night before made for quiet walking, that little voice said very clearly get down and walk around go look for a buck chasing a doe. Got down just before 8 am and walked about 200 yards and there he was! 2 quick shots and my hands were on those antlers. Glad I listened to that little vioce!"

Congradulation. Nice Buck. That would have been a good deer with just the Brow tines.
