The hunter who took this buck has quite a story to tell — and it's not just that he killed a very big buck. That's because he was hunting from his buddy's stand — a friend who could not hunt on this particular opening day because it also happened to be his wedding day! Being the good friend he was, the groom gave the OK to hunt from his stand. Besides asking the obvious question, "Who gets married on opening day?" one hunter also observed that the whole affair really "poured salt in the wound."

Nothing like starting a marriage off on the right note. 

Congratulations — to both the groom ... and his successful friend.
