    Shot this buck on October 25th. 2010 at 5:10 PM after school. Made a good, double lung hit and he went 40 or 50 yards and piled up. Then a bigger buck came by chasing after a doe and grunting. But I shot buck so I wasn't going to shoot another and ask for someone's tag. I got trail camera pictures of a five point a few days earlier and when I shot this buck I thought it was that 5 point. But I saw the 5 point 30 minutes later walking up to my buck and chasing does. I am disappointed it wasn't that 5 point but I'm still proud, after all it is my first buck, 2nd. deer this year and my deer season is over for another 12 months.

    Congratulations on your first buck! Is there a different under age 18 restriction that should make him ok?

    Congrats on your first buck. Were you hunting a zone that has point restrictions?
