[QUOTE="Tennessee24v, post: 5276235, member: 20276"] I have hunted this buck hard for 4 years on public land. When I discovered him he was already a mature buck and I estimate his age to be 7.5+. He was incredibly smart, mostly nocturnal, and made it exciting to wake up early every day of the season since 2017. I have been within 50 yards of him only a handful of times and always during bow season. He used his nose like nothing I've ever seen, always came in down wind, and never came out in the open during daylight. I hadn't seen him on camera for 2 months and hadn't seen his typical rubs refreshed since early Dec. Last weekend I went out to check cameras after the season and noticed the smell of something dead along a bluff line. I never thought I would find something this wild. 2 mature bucks slipped into this crevice and couldn't escape. They were 10 ft down and 20 ft from the ground, lodged so tight their bodies and heads were completely immobile. I was able to get both heads and will be doing euro mounts on both. Nature is unforgiving.
