Years Hunted with us: 1st year
Score: 126 5/8″
Date Harvested: September 8, 2020
Weapon: Bow

Ryan started off the week hunted one set of stands with a different deer in mind, but the deer went nocturnal at that spot, so after a couple days, one of our other hunters sacrificed their spot so Ryan could get a shot on a full velvet buck.  That night he went in and got that shot.  A gut shot with a follow up neck shot had us waiting until the next day to look for this buck.  We were able to find the deer the next morning rather quickly.  The stand he killed out of sat inside the woods about 15 yards and had a lane cut out to beans and a few lanes down into the hardwoods where the deer would stage up.  He made a 25 yards shot and in total the deer only made it 100 yards.
