    Do not pay attention to the dirtiness lol
    My biggest so far! Shot him over 300 yards away with a rifle. Dang rats got a hold of his antler but good thing my uncle is a taxidermist. I don't know what he'd measure.... probably 100-105 or close to it.

    IMG_3904.JPG This is my next biggest I've killed! It came off of 2 acres! It's a 9 point as well. It's not much to brag about as far as antler wise but the hunt was fun!!!

    He was 11 7/8 tall and 11 3/8 wide. He'd be lucky to hit 100 inches. I have seen some stud 8 pointers but they are rare to measure 140 to 150.

    Yeah my general rule nowadays are: if I'm not gonna mount the buck, I'm not gonna shoot him. It's been 4 years since I've killed a buck, Just because I want a big one some day. I don't know if It'll be this year or not... but I'll be good for 50 anyway lol

    Like i read some where if we all can kill a doe we should be in the top ten and if we can add some decent bucks to that yet well be better of yet!!!

    I really wanted to mount that euro on top of that china cabnet but i was running low on money and it was smaller than the last deer i had mounted.. but in the end it fit really well with my wifes sign lol

    Which manfrotto head is that?? I'm thinking about trying to find another one on ebay to keep on my tripod instead of switching back and forth all the time from cam arm to tripod and back...

    I've been pretty fortunate in the last 4 years, I've killed two big bucks on our trip to Illinois and lost another B&C buck that I would've bet my life savings on that he was dead (but that's a whole other story for later).. Here's a couple pictures.

    This first one I killed in 2013 a few hours before we had to be to the airport to fly back home.. Didn't have a clue he was this big until I walked up to him laying there dead!

    This one I killed the first morning sit of our trip to IL in 2015, shot him at 17 yards. Only bummer was the record button on my old lanc remote was messed up and even though I hit record, it never started recording and I didn't notice it until after the shot!!

    Here's my little collocation bucks. The one in the middle in the corner is my best so far from 2014 in Missouri.. It's also the one in the other picture. [​IMG][​IMG]
