Thanks for the tip on how to upload photos.

Here is the bad boy I shot at 30 yards with my T/C Encore Muzzle Loader last October.  Good to be lucky!

Pure 100% blind luck.  Sat all weekend and 3 evenings in my standard treestands only seeing some fork horns.  Too many acorns. So, on the next weekend, I went into a thick 100 acre patch of timber (about 50 yards) and sat down after I found a nice rub.  30 minutes later, he came by chasing 4 does.  I got up on him as he was trotting by.  He disappeared in the smoke and I cursed myself for missing him.  Got up and went over to luckily find blood.  He had only ran about 25 yards and the shot was dead center on the lungs.  I have not scored him, but I honestly think he's probably one the better bucks taken in Oklahoma last year. Do you think he will go 150 inches?

It looks like 150 inches of antler to me. Let us know after it's scored.
Keep up the good work.  It motivates me to go hunting.

Very nice Buck Sir! It is tough for a 4x4 to score 150 of higher, but with
those main beams, it just might get there. Regardless, it is a special Buck.
