No matter the spread, that is a trophy rack. You should be very proud of it, most hunters never see deer that big. Put it on the wall and start bragging!  :bow:

I took my ground blind out cranked my heater and sat and sat and sat here comes some does and as always a buck follows but dose not come close to shoot. he was out for about 15 min and something maid him run right twords me about 30 yards he stopped broad side look back were he came from. i shot and he ran about 250 yards in the swamp. great fun getting him out of there.

GG the 2 in the back ground, one is my dads and the other is his freinds.  one is a 12 pointer that is my dads, and the other one is a 10 pointer. all shot during Muzzel loader season. I think on here i posted some trail camera pics of them when they were in velvet. heres how they score.

10 pointer 150
12 pointer  155
and my 14  142

those are scores off a raculator so they are not exact but close.

 no GG it was all skill NOT LUCK like when you shoot 20 times at one deer and hit it 1 of the 20.  It was one shot for me and then a big cloud of smoke and when the smoke cleared all i could see was his tail waving at me as he ran in the swamp. for a moment i thought i missed. but then i rememberd GG showed me all the ins and outs of how to hunt and shoot the whitetail. With out you  i would not have got him.  :drinking:

you got it righ on there. I ranged him sevral times.. I think everyone should hunt with a range finder. makes you take more time with your shot.
