Swack!!! Big Buck Down!!! Shot a 13 point yesterday Boyz! Headed to taxidermist this morning then I'll post some pics.
Bear said I could post some pics. Here is a teaser pic of his buck, will let him post the rest later. AWESOME buck !!!!! Dave
Sorry guys I'm just super busy. headed to the processor and then the taxidermist, I'll post pics as soon as I can. probably tonight. Not sure he will score high, 135-140? He's pretty nontypical. Double split brow tines. 13 points. 18 inch inside spread.
Thanks guys. I watched this buck all summer. He even had his own thread. He was one of my hit list bucks, his name was moose. Shot him at 30yds using a rage hypodermic. Broad head cut the rib on opposite shoulder and stopped before penetrating the hide. He went about 100yds.
I read the rules of the contest and couldn't find anything on how long I have to enter the score. The deer is at the butcher now. It will be a few days before I can get a score. Is there a time limit?
Way to put down a nice buck Bear!! Gross score I think he is 130s. How about more of a story when you get time? We got that same cold front here in MI, but it has literally not stopped raining since Thursday night. I am going to hunt tomorrow evening. I went out this AM and brought the double bull because I knew it was going to rain. I saw 3 does in the distance, and almost was able to get a shot on a coyote but he was moving fast. I am really still trying to get this new back 188 piece of property figured out. I am not use to hunting a parcel this large and am having a hard time locking down bedding areas. The sign out there is amazing, the trails are beat down, rubs everywhere already, and trees shredded. I have pulled 2 of my 5 cards near stand locations while hunting recently and I have several good bucks for my area on those 2 cameras, some even in daylight already.
Tack on another 50 guys. I bagged a big doe this morning. Awesome day, deer were on the move all morning. Saw a decent 8 yesterday at a distance. Passed 4 young bucks today, no shooters seen yet
Well, I snuck up on two small yearlings today to 20 yards. They both were really small so I popped out from behind the tree that I kept between them and I and said "What are you doing?". Both of them got up and ran about 10 yards then stopped and looked at me. I could hear them saying "What the hell is that?" LOL I started laughing. It was really cool that I got that close. I also got involved in a tracking job for my buddy PJ. He was fixin to toss in the towel as a lose and then the DAWG sniffed out some blood. We ended up jumping the buck and kept pushing him due to a lot of blood coming out. It was not my choice to push I would of rather let him lay. We jumped him a second time but then found him 2 miles later but the blood was steady dripping the whole way after the first jump. Here is the MONSTER! 20 Score able points!
Nice work FEB!! I would be right there with you but I shot right over her back tonight. Not proud of it at all, I really beat myself up over a miss. I have been practicing like crazy so this one stings pretty bad.
