How fired up do you think Lee Hartley of Pensacola, Florida, was when he saw these pictures taken by a trail cam at Magnolia Farms Plantation in Robertsdale, Alabama?
He endured the rain the last weekend of the season and finally had a fatal encounter with the mature ten-point at about 9:00 A.M.
A Browning Stainless Stalker in .270 WSM topped with a 3.5 x 12 x 56 Kahles scope did the trick at 100 yards.
The buck had an 18″ inside spread, but was depleted to 130 pounds by the rut.
Yet another example of what chasing women will do to you!
Thanks for the great pics Lee. Keep your powder dry.

You are very welcome, Lee. Thanks for the great story and photos. This site is 100% for and about people like you. If you want to read about hunting and fishing trips taken by people who do it for a living, there are plenty of other places you can do that. I enjoy reading those stories myself. On the other hand, if you like to know about folks who do it on their own time and their own dime, you came to the right place.
