Here is my son with his 4x4 Whitetail shot in South Dakota, on our last day of hunting. We hunted hard for 7 days, and the rut was in full swing. Earlier he missed a 5x5, but was able to recover nicely with this one.

Beautiful deer, congratulations!
 
Gotta agree with tarbe ... the only thing nicer than an awesome harvest is an awesome smile shared between family and friends who are sharing our beloved pastime.

PS And DAMN! I hope to see one that nice when I go hunting this weekend,
 
Thanks again guys, much appreciated! I'll have to say that it is a beautiful deer, and yes the smile my son continues to have is priceless. LOL!!!

Good luck Scott, get the big one!
