    One question about scoring this buck. The 2 small points on his left side just past his G2...should they be considered one normal point and one abnormal point and not measure an "H" measurement between them or should I score them both as "G"s and therefore get an "H" measurement counted? Does that make sense?

    Great buck and awesome story.

    Did it ever cross your mind that you could have blow your opportunity by texting? Meaning the little movement of grabbing your phone and sending the text?

    I text and surf the net with my phone on stand...so far, I have yet to spook one (that I'm aware of).

    I knew where he was coming from and from that direction, there's no way he could have seen that little movement. It was extremely thick in that area and there was a big cedar tree blocking his view of me.

    Thanks for the compliments!
