    Not as great as Buckeye or Rybo's,

    But my best hunt of the year so far. My mock scrape setup stand worked perfectly, but the buck wasn't quite what im looking for. I cant wait to sit here over the next few weeks.

    Excellent video you put together. I agree, I think that stand is going to produce something special this year. Sounds like it has all of the ingredients for a good buck area.

    I think in the video he said 20-25 yards.

    Nice little vid, and well put together. That buck would have been very tempting for me.

    About 20 when he walked behind the leaves to the right.

    Dude... Your videos are becoming increasingly better. I loved it, what a buck for that age.

    I would have shot him, but I know what you are after :cool:

    P.S. I agree with the others. I don't think that buck is 1.5

    Thanks for the input guys,

    From what i saw of him this summer, i thought he was a 1.5. My reaction when i saw him in the woods was 2.5. Then when i put it together i got stuck...but stuck with my original though.

    However old he was, it was a great hunt, and experience.

    Very nice buck, and great footage. Sounds as if you have a good spot. Only a matter of time now.

    Very nice - well done.

    All of that with just a single manual zoom button?

    Again - awesome!
