Patience is a virtue I take pride in, so thanks Dave.

This "buck" would of scored around 185 points on the Boone and Crocket scale, but didn't score as high, due to the broken tine .

The wound looked to be a couple of weeks old, and was healing rather nicely. He was fairly healthy considering, with a good fat reserve, and was obviously eating. I'm sure the tail would of grown back, and the fight was strangely more difficult as I couldn't get the fish to turn on it's side, thus holding his depth quite well. I'm sure this fish had broke a couple of hearts in his time, and even gave Knothead a big , a trophy that I'm proud of.
