Thanks @Moho81, I may regret not holding out for a bigger buck but I doubt it. Now I can do some duck hunting!

Can't regret that epic day for a second.  Only regret would have been not shooting.  Awesome .  What a morn in the woods you won't ever forget.  Congrats.   And now you can pile up some ducks to boot. 

[Arcade Hunter]

Awesome tacks!

Back in blind for tonight’s set.   Overlooking Biologic Maximum.

Anyone else drink 5 hour energy’s like water during hunting season? My neighbor is dicking around in his back yard, don’t expect to see anything.

So much for nobody talks, everyone walks! Well I had an epic morning. I spooked no fewer than five deer on my way into a new stand I put up in a nice oak flat. Acorns were literally raining down its all I could hear. At around 7:30 four does and a four point came in together and although upwind (real wind, gusty) they got spooky and finally the big doe started blowing and they left. They were looking in a different direction so I dont know if the wind swirled or they saw something or what. The buck hung around for a bit then also left. A bit later another small buck chased two fawns around for a while and then fed out in front of me. Finally two more does came in and one fed in to 24 yards and I shot. I couldnt see my arrow but the shot felt and sounded good. I sat down and called a buddy just to pass the time and all of a sudden I look to my right and the buck is just standing like a statue at 20 yards. I had the sun at my back and I think it saved me. He moved behind a blowdown and I was able to draw and shoot him at 24 yards. He went about 60 yards and tipped over. I waited another half hour and got down to check the doe arrow. That looked real good so I got on blood and the doe was ten yards behind the buck. He had some ground shrinkage but I'm thrilled and glad to have him. Ive got some family challenges that could effect some upcoming weekends. When I got down another doe came in and stared me down for a bit and then started feeding again, I like this KUIU pattern. Also I cut the bejeezus out of my thumb inside the buck and it is still weeping, may go get that looked at lol

Legal question... A squirrel just delivered a whole ear of corn to the base of my tree and left it. Did he just set me up for a baiting fine?

Only if they can prove that you trained the squirrel! Hopefully he can be trusted!!

I might have to silence him just to be sure. His actions didn't seem too trustworthy.

One of my best friends is a DEC officer and there's another DEC officer on our lease. I just texted my buddy and he said he's on his way to write a ticket! Haha
