MuZZyMomentZ Posted March 5, 2007 Report Share Posted March 5, 2007 Well I got the scores from my first ever bow buck kill today. Unfortunately, he grossed 129", with his final score being 123" after deductions. So close but so far!! Son of a gun I thought I was I was P&Y. Well I suppose there is always next year.

MuZZyMomentZ Posted March 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2007 Re: Bow buck officially scored, disappointment ens Like that sig straight shooter.

Dogg6 Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 Re: Bow buck officially scored, disappointment ensues That is still a great buck. I haven't had mine scored yet but I unfortunately think mine will be just short too. I will post the results when I get it done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brownie65 Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 Re: Bow buck officially scored, disappointment ensues As some have said it is not about making the book. I don't shoot a deer to put him in a book. I have several deer that could be in it but have not put any in. Yes it is nice, I like seeing peoples bucks there but as long as you are happy with your deer that is all that matters. Nice buck you have there.
