Thanks for all the positive comments guys.... I honestly needed that..... I have never been so close to hanging up my bow as I was this year. Property issues and tresspassers..... it all seems trivial..... but its stuff that weighs heavy on me.... he's not my biggest buck but he's still a dandy in my eyes. I'm perfectly content with shooting 140 inch deer every year. The hunt was one of the more relaxing and laid back I've had this year. I honestly went in there with zero expectations and just wanted to reminisce. This is where I've killed several of my biggest deer.... from literally the same tree. And this is where me and one of my best friends used to hunt together.... he helped me drag many a deer out of this hollow.... well he passed in 2007 at 23 from colon cancer. So this spot has a special place in my heart. I called his dad yesterday morning and he helped me drag the fat bastard out of the hollow.... we shared a few good laughs and a few tears. .... at the end of the day its more memories from what I call the killing stand.....

Well said Zach. And these memories made are the things that many people don't understand about the hunting experience. Congrats again.

Zach,
Thats a beautiful deer and I'm sure the memory of the day and sharing it with family will be with you always.

But that picture with your daughter. Priceless! Great smiles. Congratulations!
