The biggest buck I have ever seen, would have definately been my pb by far. I was on a ground stand and had cleared some leaves so I could move into shooting position very quietly but the buck came from a direction I was not expecting and was walking pretty fast so I was not able to get into shooting position before he disappeared behind a small hill 50 yards away. He was a really majestic and huge buck, not exactly sure how many points but in the 160 class probably.
Once in position the realization that within a few seconds I was going to take a massive trophy buck was just so intense, man my neck was just pounding, buck fever, shaking, everything.
Well he came out and I missed three broadside shots at him at 60 yards
My scope had been bumped.........the aim was way off
Grieved out for awhile then called her a day as I knew I would not be having any more chances like that.
I was pretty upset for a few days but returned on closing day with the other rifle and bagged a pretty nice 9 pointer while stillhunting
It was alot of fun, I think it will help lessen the grief of missing the huge one, cant wait til next year
