Waited for two hrs. until this buck came into range, 250yrds to 300. He just kept feeding in the right direction. Almost got my cover blown a couple times from some other smaller bucks, but they moved on by without incident. If you can really see the tips of the horns, you will notice the "Ivory Tipping" The tips are all white giving the appearance of Ivory. He is really weak in the fork of his horns but everything else is good. Not a Monster, but good for this area.

It was the longest shot I have ever made on an animal, I'm calling it luck.

Yummy. I may have to take up hunting just for home made jerky. Serious weak spot for it.
