My Last Buck on the Ponderosa

This px is the last buck I shot on the private lands section called the "ponderosa" in western MN (2004), I had hunted this specific area for over 20 years.....I shot it from a treestand in the middle of a section.....actually, the first shot was forty yards away and I hit the antlers only.... the deer got up! after 10 minutes and wobbled away from me behind some cottonwoods,...after waiting for eternity (3-5 minutes) I shot again....the deer dropped at 147 yards. The property I hunted on for almost 25 years ....was sold to another private party. Ouch!
