Mathews MQ32 bow, Muzzy 100 grain broadhead
shot at 15 yards 🙂 yeah, i love those long shots!

I passed up a shot on a dinky 2 x 1 on New Year’s day at, again, 15 yards. The freezer was empty and I could have used the meat, but I knew I was in a great trophy area, so I held. Boy, am I glad I did! 🙂 I always name my big deer, and this one is Marcella’s Birthday Buck. He was taken the weekend of my Mom’s birthday. She has been diagnosed with extensive small-cell lung cancer and I wanted to honor her in my memory.

The buck was cruising for does and the neck was massive. Estimated live weight is 125 lbs.
