My dad drew this tag. I have not been out there except a few shed hunting trips years ago. I spend about 50 plus days a year on the oak creeks looking for deer and would be willing to trade some info. Looking for any advice. Thanks guys

It's been pretty tough finding a buck that has everything. But it's sure been fun

Update On the hunt. We found this buck in our summer scouting and was able to keep track of him. Made a lot of stalks on this buck. He spent a total of probally 12hrs through out the hunt within 50yds of this buck in his bed. Just was never presented the right shot for a bow. He passed on a lot of great bucks with a buck of this caliber in mind. He never did kill a deer but had a great time. We passed along info to a muzzleloader hunter on this buck. He shot him on day 5 and wounded him, the buck has not been recovered. Not a happy ending on a buck that we spent so much time with.

I hate to hear that... on the flip side it sounds like you and your dad had a great time together...

That is why they call it Hunting!

Glad you and your dad got to spend some time together for sure.
