Brandon Alley was having a bad day when he ended up dropping his personal best and first archery buck in Stanly County, NC. As he climbed into his stand late in the evening of Oct. 4, 2020, Brandon hurried and got seated around 6 p.m. in time to hear a large group of does feeding on acorns as they approached from behind. Brandon then saw a 9-pointer appear through a thicket and let his arrow fly from 20 yards out. He recovered the buck no less than 70 yards from where he stood.
