    Just got the call from my buddy duke that he slammed another monster over the same mock scrape he shot his buck over yesterday. And this one is bigger than the first!

    Photos to come probably tomorrow morning before I can make it out and return the photography favor.

    Now we're both tagged out in IL. Woo Hoo!

    Thanks everyone.

    As it turns out.. I did it again.. the same set-up as the other day and everything. Wasn't even gonna hunt it.. just went out to hang a trailcam over the mock-scrape.. I saw it had been torn up since yesterday.. HUGE tracks all over.. so I went up into my set-up. Was going to be leaving for Galena country tomorrow early AM. Was.

    CANNOT BELIEVE IT HAPPENED AGAIN.

    I'm extremely tired now.. even lost 4 pounds this week due to the treestand diet.

    Tomorrow I'll have pics.

    He's every bit of 140-145".. As a 7 point (he busted off a likely 5" brow).

    I'm sleeping now.:o
