    I'll let you know in about 30-60 years, because I honestly don't know.

    Something that looks something like this.... or maybe the second one too which is my Dad's. He sure is a wide sucker. I want one with cool characteristics that either has a lot of junk, wide, or tall.

    This one is pretty cool also, with the double main-beam

    A giant typical that is TALL and NARROW! Something 12-14" wide is my dream - but 14-16" 2's, 3's, 4's - oh wait, that's a typical WR! he he he... That would do!

    170" or bigger with lots of mass and the more "junk" the better.

    A dream buck for me would have to be something that is in the realm of obtainable so, I would say something in the form of 160 PA inchs in any form or fashion.

    I have been lucky enough to kill a couple of dream bucks. About 4 years ago I took a 169" 10 pt that was 24 1/2" inside and had a 7" drop-tine. Then last October I took a 15 pt that grossed 185" and was only 14" inside but had over 42" of mass. Those are my best bow kills to date. Do I have to have an outside photo account of some type to upload them??? I have never taken the time to learn about posting photos at this site yet. Any input would be appreciated.

    Go to the water cooler and there is a thread at the top of the page that will walk you through it, I believe. Your buck that you shot last Oct. sounds a lot like the buck I want my dream buck to be...Would love to see the pics!

    Thanks guys. The top buck was a 3 year chase. Glad it took me so long to get him so he could grow up.:d I have 3 of his sheds and got pictures of him quite often but it was always at night as is often the case with older deer. Finally got him last October 28th working a scrape line I had gotten his picture on. I used the can call and he came to 10 yards. I had watched him work scrapes for 15 minutes and called to him as he was going to leave without offering a good shot. I had to pass him up the season before during late muzzleloader season because his left side was broken off just past his brow tine. I just found the broken piece this June while working on a tower blind that had blown over. The antler was laying 5 feet from the blind. Kind of neat that I already had the mount on the wall and still found that antler that saved his life the prior winter. Best of luck on your dream bucks.
