    We've owned our farm for 3 years now and have worked hard to manage it for deer and turkeys. We've established food plots and done extensive timber stand improvement. For the first two years I didn't see any book bucks. Things have begun to change.

    5 days into the season this guy came under my tree stand along with two young bucks. I was able to make a good shot and he only traveled about 60 yards. Although we could have found him by ourselves, my wife brought my tracking dog I've trained for a few years to my stand. He quickly found the arrow and then the buck. I was so proud of him.

    The 6x5 4 year old buck field dressed 220 lbs and gross scored 156 4/8", unofficial of course.

    I feel very fortunate to have taken this nice buck and believe it's some payback for the effort I've put into the farm over the past few years.

    Great buck. It's nice to see all the hard work that you put into a pice of land and all the wildlife management practices pay off. Congrats on the nice buck and I hope you make many more memories on your farm. Keep on farming for wildlife.
