Hi Guys, I got one at sunset tonight. Not the one I had written about earlier. My first NH Buck and my best one by far to date. Dressed at 180 pounds but the check in guys thought he lost a lot of weight in his hind legs from rutting. Nice 8 point non-typical with 5 on one side and 3 on the other. Real thick large heavy beams. I can't believe this thing was living in my neighborhood. Took me 3 hours to drag him out of the woods. I still can't believe it, I'm so excited after taking vacation time and hunting non stop all week (not to mention bow and muzzloader seasons). I had to share the news here. Had one come out 30 minutes earlier into this clearcut but he went the other way. I tried to chase but he disappeared. I figured my hunt was done but sat for the last hour of light and an even bigger buck came in and I smoked him. I have no idea how to share pics, something about photobucket, etc... I too tired right now to start down that path. Let me know if you want to see him and I can try another day. Good luck guys. I was feeling down on my luck, tird, and beaten up and, out of nowhere, it happened all of a sudden and fast. Keep your spirits up guys, good things do come to those who wait.

Congrats Hammerfish! I would like to see a picture of it.
