Matt Eastman writes, "I found this buck 11 days before the rifle opener during a backcountry bowhunt. I went back to relocate the buck 3 days before the season opened and could not find the buck. I looked and looked with no luck. On opening morning, my buddy, Cory, and I glassed a high secluded alpine basin and luck was on my side. I found him feeding in a rocky chute. After a good stalk, and Cory running the video camera, I put the buck down for good."
