Some things are just worth waiting for.

After spending six years tracking and watching the animal grow, a hunter finally put down a massive buck.

His patience paid off -- as he now gets to say he took down a 17-pointer.


David Miller first spotted the animal in 2013, the West Virginia Gazette-Mail reported. Miller and his friends had leased a piece of property in Mingo County, West Virginia, and would notice the impressive animal on a network of game cameras they had set up.

“The funny thing about that buck was that in the six years I followed him, I only ever saw him one time in the daylight,” Miller told the Gazette-Mail. “All the pictures we had of him were at night. He had learned early on how to avoid hunters.”
