    I shot right over the back of some points for us today. I was ready to put some deer in the freezer and took the shot at a spike on some public ground. Buzzed a few hairs right off the top of him.

    Well guys, I’m on the board! It happened so fast tonight and he came up on me in a hurry. I️ stopped him and I️ didn’t made the best shot but he expired quickly. I️ shot him at 4:00 and didn’t start looking until about 9. 150 yards later I️ got him! [​IMG][​IMG]

    Not going to be the highest scoring buck out there but he’s a mature deer and one of the bigger bucks where I’m hunting. I️ am beyond happy with this buck. I’ll get him scored in the morning.

    That's a nice deer benny!
    Looks like you should score well with mass and the widest spread on him

    I look at some of the pictures and scores associated with the bucks on the score thread and think, ahhh maybe people shouldnt be allowed to measure their own deer.

    Im seeing pictures of deer the size of mine and they all say 120, come on... maybe i should have added 2 - 3/8ths on every measurement too

    Or, maybe i screwed up and missed a measurement on mine???

    I see that all over the place on the web or even with friends and their friends and so on. The reason I measure my deer is so I know what it scored, I don’t care what other people think honestly. It got me fired up and I shot it. No need to fudge the score to stroke the ego.

    I share a lease with a couple guys in Illinois. One of my partners killed our #1 hitlister. Main frame 12 with triple split brows for 16 scoreable points...grossed out at 167-4/8. Luck of the draw on who hunted where and he held the rabbits foot yesterday morning. Time to find another buck to hunt. I have a few options but they've been MIA for a little while. We'll see how it pans out.
