Success after 3 years of chasing

Thanks guys, he may not have been 2.5 years old in 2009 since he had a decent sized body then. He came in behind me at 10 yards last year and I was not ready, it was tough to see him get away, but I was able to come out on top this year.

Great Buck, grats!! You did what I'm trying to do, how does it feel?

[crs740]

Pretty good, UpStateRedNeck. I have shot a couple older bucks when I lived in Texas, but it is certainly the oldest deer I have killed in NY.

yes, i am going to mount him and put the picture from 09, 10, 11 and the harvest photo next to him. I only started bow hunting in 2006 and have passed a lot of young in the hopes of tagging a mature buck. He will have a nice place in my man cave (which be overtaken by a baby in December)
