Finally got it done Friday night at 4:30. Ma sat in my stand thursday night to "scout" it for me and saw this buck fighting with a smaller one. Friday he came to check a mock scrape at the edge of my food plot, then layed his ears back and started out into the plot to chase off a spike. Shot him at 17 yds and he went about 120. The shot was a little far back but caught the back of both lungs and probably some liver because the arrow was coated with blood and the whole abdomen was full of blood. He didn't leave much on the ground so the track job was kind of emotional but it was very fun to share with my Mom and Dad. 18" inside and 20" outside and SUPER HEAVY. He'll probably gross score about 140" for those that keep track. Mom (67 yrs old) shot a 2 yr old 8 with her bow a few days prior which was her biggest.20141108_075545.jpg
 
Very Nice.....he does have some serious mass! Good to see your mom's still out there flinging arrows at 67!
 
Thanks all. Here's another showing the mass, about 7" between the G2 and G3.

Very nicely done. I put my tag on a meat buck on Tuesday. After 2 weeks of leaving the trails cams out, not one this size of yours showed up day or night. Lots of small ones running around but I bet they get thinned out during the gun season!
