Great story and great buck! Other than seeing the giant scrapes, did you have any idea this buck was hanging around your property prior to this? no sir we didnt run anycametas this year. Did see a really big 8 last year but no way this is him. Lol.

Well i went out saturday morni g with my pastor. And after the morning hunt on the walk out i found 3 huge fresh scrapes the size of a car hood within 50 yards of my stand and a huge rub. Well we went back out saturday evening and didnt see anytjing till bout 710. I had been doin a little grunting about every hour well bout 7 i tryed 1 last time and about 2 or 3 minutes later i heard him in the thicket rubbing a tree and grunting breaking stuf he was furious... He stepped out about 20 yards away and was peeing in his scrape and i remember telling myself to focus on the shoulder i only have to be calm for 2 seconds and i can make this happen. Well the rest is history an absolute beast. And what makes it even better is it was in tipton county where theres only like 10 deer in the whole county. Lol. My taxidermist said it could very well be the record for tipton. Were checking into it!!!!! Ive only ever seen like 3 giants in 30 years of hunting from a stand anyways and he is in a class all by himself!!!!!

Ive been hunting since i was bout 7 or 8 years old and am 35 now. This morning i seen the biggest buck ive ever laid eyes on fellas im guessing every bit of 170" easy i know its easy to say that but i watched it for about 10 minutes and even tried to talk myself into it that it wasnt HUGE! lol. I mean it was a giant just grateful to get to see it really! Was with my buddy at 1 of his places. Hes seen it once this year also and has trail cam pics of it. He just showed me. Just unreal deer. Were headed back tonight really hope he can get a shot at it hes an awesome guy and deserves it. Hes the only person that takes me to his best spots and always puts me in his favorite stands. As he knows i dont have good places like him. You just dont find them like that anymore. So really hope he can get him! He has been waiting for a monster for a few years now as his kids and wife get plenty for them to eat!

Daughter wouldn't get up to go. So I stayed home to go with the wife to the baby DR. Found out a few months back we were having #3. Her mom had some complications and my wife has a heart issue along with this being considered a geriatric pregnancy we are seeing a specialist today. We'll get out this afternoon congrats

I do the same thing. I got a nice buck in MI after changing locations based on sign that I found after leaving another stand. Only had to move about 200 yds, but that made all the difference. Actually saw very little sign on my way in and out to the first stand and I suspect the deer may be onto that location and access route. The moral of the story is don't give up completely on scouting during the season. I've been a lot more aggressive this year than past years, basically doing the things I was always told not to do. I've been going into bedding areas a lot, and not just mornings. I've been creeping up within 40 yards during the day. Its paid off by being the best year I've ever had on any land, especially public. Most of my prehung stands ended up only being about 50 yards off of big bucks. Unfortunately I also haven't sat the same spot twice so I didn't catch onto that till it was too late. Either way, one of these days Ill seal the deal and its going to be with a bow. I'm putting the gun up. what part of the state do you hunt?
