89 and Still Counting!

Grandpa D has been braggin to me all fall about this 8 point he has seen at Reed City and how he was going to shoot it. Well he shot it on opening night, it was about a 60 yard shot and the buck went about 30 yards. A very nice 8 pt with a 16” outside spread. Not bad for an 89 year old!!

I owe Dan for this one, He called and said he saw a good buck chasing a doe in the swamp and saw it go towards the east and said I should head that way to cut it off. Didn't see the buck Dan saw but this one came from the south. I was standing behind a tree and the deer came within 6 feet until he saw me peek my head around the tree. He took off and at about 50 yds stopped and looked back and that was it. 8 point 19" wide.
