Dave, year in and out, if I had to bet on a big buck going down, I'd put my money on you every single time! Once again congrats on another great Iowa stud buck! You have a great thing going out there! When I come out to hunt Iowa next fall, I definitely wantto come visit and get a tour of your big buck country and collection! Congrats on your speed goat.. dang I must have missed that ...either or I am suffering from CRS disease again!
Contrary to the thread title, that is more than just a "nice 10pt." Thats a stallion right there. And a helluva deer too!
wow between that buck and the one in your profile picture youve shot two bucks of my lifetime. major props to you my friend.
First, you have to remember that I am blessed to be living in the right area for big deer. No different than a trophy elk hunter living in Arizona or certain areas of New Mexico. No real magic, just some careful planning and a little luck. Shed, would be glad to show you both the land and the mounts. I have worked hard for both and am proud to show them off. lol Thanks again everyone for all the great replies. Best of luck to you all and wear those harnesses!
Fletch...even though you screwed up my prediction earlier this year, I was still happy to see this thread. Big congrats to you. Heck of a deer.
I should have known you wouldnt forget. Sorry man, I just got too busy to hunt early October when they are still on a feeding pattern in daylight. My bad. Please forgive me. Next year!
