Beauty and Shooter are always in the eye of the beholder! Congrats on the buck!

Finally shot a buck
My brother has been after me to kill a deer for him to make jerky out of so I went last night and did not see anything so I got up and went again this morning. A few minutes after 9 I was standing in a ladder stand stretching my legs and looking around and had just started easing back down to sit when this guy pops up trotting real fast across the ridge and heard my butt hit the seat apparently. He stopped with his head and neck behind a tree and I could tell he was about to explode out of there. My brain was screaming shooter and I needed meat so I shot him. Turned out to have a lot of ground shrinkage but my brother will get his jerky now so all is well. :wink:
