Killed this deer on Sumter national forest. Hunted and scouted this area for 3 years. Finally figured it out last year late In the season. Went in with no scouting for this year and walked in 1/2 a mile in the dark and set up In a tree by the trail I knew the bucks used. This buck came by a 8:15am going back to his bedding area and I shot him. Took hours to get him back through the steep hills. Buck weighed 190lbs.
