SIWhitetailHunter Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 Here are some pictures my cousin forwarded me from his dad's farm that he stumbled across today. The one deer was already dead at the time it took place, and the DNR told the landowner (my cousin) to get a hold of a bow hunter. My cousin muzzleloader hunts. So he called the first person he could think of with a tag, (IF ONLY I WAS HOME AND NOT AT SCHOOL LOL...) So this is the outcome of two bruisers fighting. A salvaged tag was issued for the already deceased buck. Here is only a few pictures. If you'd like more respond and I'll try to post some more when I have time.

Randy Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 Pretty sad way to have to end the lives of two great bucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 Couple of very nice bucks there. So your cousin got to keep the already dead deer with the salvage tag or the other hunter keep both? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SIWhitetailHunter Posted November 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 He was able to keep the rack with a salvage tag. The other hunter who was running out of time and volunteered his tag for this kept the rack from the other. No real winners on this situation. You hate to shoot one that way to fill your tag, but it's a lot better than allowing the deer to suffer and die. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nyhunter22 Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 man those are two great bucks...thats a shame that they both had to die especially the way it happened it is true that it was better than having them suffer though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sskybnd Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 maybe the one still alive could have been saved if they would have called a vet to drug the live one long enough to saw the horns off, they were good bucks forsure.

WestKyTeacher Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 Why did it have to be a bow hunter and not a ML? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
