Story and Comments.: My brother and I double-team tracked this buck for 3 miles the day before. We nicknamed him "fish" because he would rather be in the water than on dry land. The morning I got him we found his track coming back out of the area where we left him the previous afternoon. We checked the next road over and he hadn't crossed so we knew we were set. We came onto his bed and it was soft with slush even though the temp was 12. 10 steps later and we caught him looking at us and I shot him quick just above the heart. My brother in the bottom picture had shot his 205 lb 8pt two days earlier. What a week!
