Robbie Haines, of Town of Onondaga, poses with his nice buck.

His neighbor, Bill Lucas, wrote: "My neighbor, Robbie Haines, on Bussey Road in the Town of Onondaga, is an avid hunter and works as a lineman. He spends a lot of time scouting, prepping, and planning for deer season.

"This year, his hunt was disrupted by the massive storm that hit the Northeast at the end of October. He was called to Connecticut to restore power in the worst hit areas. While he was there, he would text his twin brother, James, multiple times a day asking where was he hunting, what did he see, why doesn't he try...., etc.

"James bagged a nice doe early in the season, and would still go out to give his brother daily reports.

"Well, Robbie's work was finally finished yesterday morning. He raced back to Syracuse, grabbed his hunting gear, and was in his tree stand behind his house at 2:30. At 3:15, the buck in the photo ran by chasing a doe, and was dropped with one shot."
