Default First buck took 3years

I have been hunting for three years now and i finally caught a break. Every year i take a couple does and never really see many bucks. This year i must have done something right. I guess '' something right'' must have been getting mad and going back towards my truck half our after daylight. I had been watching an open field that never has deer in it for more than the first few minutes of daylight. After not seeing anything i deceided to pull out and go elsewhere. Just got back to the truck ( 200 yards away) when i turned around and right where i had been laying in a fence row stood the biggest buck i had seenin person. before i knew it i was laying flat on my gut with him in the scope. I will post a picture as soon as my wife gets home to show me what im doing wrong..

Try uploading a pic on a website like www.photobucket.com or http://www.imageshack.us/ Then it will give you the link and you can post it.

Does anyone have an idea on how this buck would score?

Holy crap! What a buck! It will be a long time before you top that one. I don't know what he'll score but he'll score very good as symetrical as that rack is and a genuine 12, wow. Let us know when you get him scored.

I have never caped one, so i have to wait til tommorrow night to get my buddy to cape him right and then he goes to the taxi. I should know a green score tommorrow. They say you should shoot a small one so you can top it easier....Im screwed!!
