Been teachung myself how to hunt now for going on 5 years. Things finally came together today for me. Couldn't have been a better day! Had my 11 year old son Justin in the stand for the first time with me. This deer comes out to the edge of our little cleaning and spooked and turned and ran. Just then Justin tells me dad there's a deer coming, "stand up". So I stand and wait. Sure enough the deer comes back and gives me a broadside shot at about 20 yards. Double lunged it. Ran about 60 yards. Shot it with my JD Berry Apollo and some 2016's with 150 gr Woodsmans.
 

Should add that this is my first deer ever and my first buck ever.  

The first is always special, Congrats!
