Jeff Lipple, 24, of Troy, shot a nine-point, 195-pound buck near Cedarville just after the sun came up on the morning of October 5. He and his brother, Greg Lipple, have been keeping tabs on this deer for three years, ever since it was a two-year-old eight-point. They wanted to let him grow until he was at least four years old, they said. This was Mr. Lipple's first buck.
