Here is the story posted earlier:

I hadn't seen him in daylight (otherwise only on my gamecam) for 2 years. He came in to doe scent right before dark. He hung out in a grove of trees about 7 yards from me looking for her, didn't think he would ever step out. He stepped out, quartering away and my shot was a bit forward of his shoulder. It turns out I hit him in his neck and burried the broadhead so deep the taxidermist had to use a pair of pliers to pull it out. Don't know how he even moved! Bled heavy for about 50 yards then nothing. Trailed him for about 150 yards on a speck here and there and drag marks from his front left leg the next morning (worst night of sleep in my life). I couldn't have been happier when I found him!

The rest of the story is I shot at him as a younger buck 2 years before.  My arrow hit a twig in the tree I was in throwing my arrow back and low hitting his back foot.  He healed up just fine but I could always tell it was him from that point forward from pics, even if I couldn't see his rack.  Must have been fate.

Congrats on a great looking Texas buck. You should be proud. As for me, I'm jealous.

very nice mount, i remember when you posted the story, it's always
great getting mounts back, I'm pumped about one i'm getting back next week that i shot back in 07' (not so quick a turnaround time)
Love the Lord, love your wife and kids, work hard, hunt harder

Thanks again guys, Boone send pics when you get him in.  Was he as nice as the one you took this last year?  If so you must have a heck of a place to hunt!

Boone the Hunter

he was a huge 13 pointer i was chasing all year, scored 180'', the only thing is i shot him with my compound bow, last year was my first year with traditional archery, so i'm not sure if i can post pics here, but i'd love to e-mail you pics if you want
