hoosierhunter Posted November 23, 2012 Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 I connected with the Wide 8 this evening. He came out following 5 does about 45 minutes before sundown and I was able to shoot him at 28 yards with the muzzleloader. The shockwave ate him up and he went down in 60 yards. He was the #3 hit list buck on my main farm. Unfortunately he got bumped up to #2 when Grumpy got hit by a car two weeks ago. You will notice that wound on his neck from my neighbor shooting him head on last Friday with his bow. He only got about two inches of penetration on him. He should be right around the 130 inch mark from what I can tell and I'm guessing he will dress around 170-185 lbs this late in the year. I'm thinking he will be my first euro mount.

hoosierhunter Posted November 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 Wide 8 goes down Well he a tad better than I thought at 137 4/8ths. He dressed at 181 lbs. I was in that stand based on camera info on him specifically over the past 3 weeks and hunting him that night. I've been very fortunate as the plans have came together 4 of the last 5 years on targeted deer. It's a great reward for some hard work!
