Public land Ridgetop buck

I shot this buck the evening of November 3rd, I set up on a ridgetop upwind of his bed but slightly down hill from his scent path almost the wrong wind. He came by me about 20 minutes before dark at about 25 yards, He had a really big body he was pushing 250 pounds. Im thinking he was 3.5 maybe older.

Good buck and great job setting up on him.
You can fool some of the bucks, all of the time, and fool all of the bucks, some of the time, however you certainly can't fool all of the bucks, all of the time.
