Well I need to give HDLabs a big thank you for coming to my rescue this afternoon to help drag this deer out. I had him patterned pretty decent from the trailcam but when I arrived home yesterday to find he was on the corn pile at 10:30 AM and we had just had a big thunderstorm here in Lexington I knew he was close and he should move before dark. I had a small 7 point and a doe out in front most of the time I was there and he stepped out just before dark. To make a long story short I did not find him until 3:00 this afternoon in about a foot of water (submerged)after a long restless night. I am grateful to have had an opportunity to harvest this deer so close to home and I probably put more work into this deer than most of the ones I have killed over the years.
9 pt., 17.5" spread and a guess of 180 lbs.
