[QUOTE="bluedog69, post: 2356458, member: 118823"] Here is an update to this thread I started. Got me a big 150" buck!!! Well the last night of season with about 5 minutes to go Tackett(my 12 year old) spotted me a nice one. Ok so I lied. He is only 139 3/8". 😁 I checked my watch and said we have about 5 minutes of season left. BOOM! South of us about 1/2 mile a shot went off. Tackett said I better watch the CRP to our south in case a buck comes over that hill. He no more than got that out and he said Dad! Big buck! So I looked in the CRP with my scope and there he was. I thought he might be decent. Tackett was like, Dad you better shoot he is really nice, at least an 8. Think he is a 10! .....Boom!….Whap! Down he went! I love WSG and I hate WSG! By the time we walked the 225 out to where he was it was pretty dark but Tackett spotted him with cell phone light. He actually had a little ground growth. I was just sure he would end up a 120". Just like spending other people's money Tackett seems to want to burn my buck tag pretty quick like. He seems to be pickier about his. 🤣 I will guarantee that if I hadn't bought this new Meopta Meostar R2 I would not have gotten this buck. At 225 yards in the last few minutes of legal shooting light my old scope would have been completely useless. I love the red dot and the wide variety of intensity settings. A big thanks to all who pointed me in the right direction in this thread.👍👍👍 [ATTACH type="full"]316651[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]316652[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]316653[/ATTACH] This next picture is of Tackett's 166" on the left. Mine is on the right. Of course I didn't take a front view of each. This is the only view where mine looks bigger than Tackett's. [ATTACH type="full"]316656[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
