What is your dream buck, or better yet, buck of a lifetime?? If you have already shot your dream buck, post up some pics!!
I will go with a droptine. I have not limited it to a single or double drop. But there is also a nice tall and wide 10 point that I had my eye on last year that would make me a very happy hunter.
My dream buck would be a boone and crockett typical. I don't think my chances are great at getting one but I am sure going to try. More realistically...I am really hoping to at least knock down a 160+ gross typical at some point in my life.
my dream buck would be seeing my son get a P&Y buck... more satisfying than any buck i'd ever take myself...
a narrow 15 inch or less wide spread with super tall tine length and great mass, preferrably a main frame 10 with double split g-2s, at least 175 inch gross............maybe thats a little detailed lol
First of all it would be any buck that went along with our QDM philosophy, but I would prefer a mid morning kill during early November. My father has taken many 10a.m. - noon bucks in early November and says it is one of the best hunting experiences ever. He believes in dawn to dusk hunting during the rut...never a bad time to be on the stand. It's after the flurry of morning doe activity when the bucks begin to cruise the woods that grunting and rattling become a bowhunter's best friend. I'm moving back to my hometown so I'll be able to hunt the rut more this year...maybe I'll finally get my wish granted.
I'm doing pretty good on Dream bucks. A double drop tine and two others that gross over B&C. However there are more Dream bucks out there for me. It would be cool have a crack at a big, knarley non-typical.
I'm hoping my dream buck is still alive. We hunted for him hard last year to no avail. My friend did see the deer after season ended in January, so I'm hoping he made it through the winter.
The first buck I ever killed when I was in 12th grade was my dream buck. From antlers to experience, nothing happened like I thought it would...and that was perfect. I missed one the following year that looked like his twin in archery season. I say he was my dream buck because I still picture him today (13 years later) and how I got the shot off, my dad coming to help track, finding him, then the 1.5 mile drag. My new updated dream is getting a shot at a deer we were chasing last year and never saw. Only saw signs but, what makes him special is that it is in PA on pressured state game land. Not even sure he made it out alive last year.....I'll try my best to find out. I have no idea how big he is or what his rack looks like. I just keep dreaming of what he could be.
I like the MASSIVE typical look much more than a jungle gym nontypical look. Give me the mid 170s-180s perfect 10 with 13" daggers for tines. I also admit to being a sucker for spread, so long as tine length AND mass accompany it :d.
