The next October came and he showed up on camera in my Imperial Whitetail Clover plot where I saw him so much the year before and man did he grow. I had several opportunities at him but let him go because he was a 3 year old. It was tough because he was a 140 inch buck. Last season started to get close and I couldn’t wait. On Aug. 25 my dad and I decided to go to the farm early that morning and see if we saw any bucks and I must say our mouths dropped. The deer I’d been watching for two years was standing in the Imperial Whitetail Clover and all I can say is he turned into a giant! I made my mind up that all I wanted to do was bow hunt this deer. On Nov. 27 I saw him for the fist time while I was hunting. He came out about 4:30 p.m. to feed and I couldn’t get a shot at him. I have tons of pics of him in this field feeding but I was getting most of them at night, but I knew if I hunted that stand with the west wind that I needed that I would have a really good chance to kill this deer. Dec. 13 came and my brother and I decided to go. It was 4:45 p.m. when I looked up and saw my deer feeding right to me I knew this would be my chance. He offered me a 40-yard shot and I took it, when I saw the arrow go through him I knew I just killed my giant. He grew into a 157-inch deer. He is a main frame 8 with a few kickers off his G2. There is no doubt that Whitetail Institute products were a factor on not just the score of the deer but also keeping this deer on our farm away from neighbors’ farms. My dad and I have planted nothing but Whitetail Institute products on our farm over the last 10 years and have seen a tremendous improvement of whitetail growth. Whitetail Institute products are truly amazing products. I recommend to anybody that wants to see more deer and see bigger deer they should really give Whitetail Institute products a try.
