My friends Mark and Cody have been trying to convince me to get an Ido for a while now and i finally gave in. But i just got this buck on the last friday of regular gun season. This was my very first buck, so i set the bar very high. But i was hunting on a friends land and its right next to mount LaCrosse and the ski hill. I had been sitting in my treestand all morning and my dad and I left our stands to go do a few drives. We were part of two unsuccesful drivesthat morning and this was our third and last drive. I was a stander on the drive and my dad was one of the drivers. This buck came out of the woods and into the field at a full out sprint and i hardly had any time to react. But i managed to raise my remington 870 and shoot the buck. I hit him a little far forward but I still managed to hit his spine and drop him instantly. This eight-point scored 157 and had an inside spread of 22 1/2″. I am unbelievably happy with this buck of a lifetime!
