It will probably make its way back here come August before elk season and definitely before deer season.

My lone buck of the 24/25 hunting season. I was lucky enough to get a great picture of him before shooting him. 7 point 213 lbs

Have done it tough for several years since getting started, have had some back luck in recovery, taken several does a year for regular meat but bucks hard to come by, but had a good season this year in MI.
Rifle opener, having sat 6 and half hours for only two distant does seen in the cold had this guy waltz in to 60 yards at 11am. In a cool twist, he hit a scrape I had a camera on, so got to see him tear that up afterward. The 270 dropped him 30 yards from the climbing stand. Took 30 minutes to stop shaking enough to climb down - wife had just arrived to get out for the afternoon, so got to recover this big boy with me. 134.5" 11pt 5y.o. - previously only had a little accidental 3pt to speak of. First buck I've had a reasonable shot at during rifle season.
As it usually is with pressure, didn't see much thereafter until the day after Thanksgiving. Sitting on the ground had 15 does run by at 10 yards, shot one of the last ones for meat, only for 3 bucks to turn up after her and pause 50 yards out, their headgear obscured. Fortunately, had the 2nd buck tag on hand, and took a shot at what I thought was the huge bodied deer (who I've seen in that area before) who had got close before backing away - only to discover they shell gamed me. Thought I'd missed as the big deer jumped high and ran off uninjured, but closer tracking revealed I'd tagged out on this 6 pt. Still way better than any previous deer I'd taken in MI, other than the above.
Freezers full, and taxidermy bills. Happy with that.
