ultratec1 Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 Well I took overtime wednesday night and less than an hour into my shift my girlfriends dad calls and asks if I can help him when I get off work in the morning. He says he killed a big 12 and he was going to leave him until the morning. Needless to say it was a long night for both of us but we made it out to the spot where he shot him. We picked up the blood trail and followed it maybe 60-70yrds and there he was. He said that he thought that he heard him drop but didnt want to take the chance. This is his largest buck to date and its going to be tough to get much better. He has it all, 18 scorabel points, identical kickers on both G-2's, split browtine, a mainbeam with 3 points going straight out on the end and a 6" droptine!!!! I scored him and so did a local archery shop and we came up the exact same score, well they had 6/8ths and I had 1/8ths. But the gross score was the same. So I will leave the score off and let you guys have fun and guess the score. I will post it on sunday. And yes there were some field photos taken but I dont have my camera here to upload them.

ultratec1 Posted October 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 LOL it wasnt his land but he is the only one that can hunt it. I scored it and got 182 1/8ths and then he took it to a local shop who also scored it at 182 4/8ths. Didnt do the net, I'm not a big fan of net scores.
