woolybear Posted November 28, 2010 Report Share Posted November 28, 2010 Finally luck was on my side for once this year. After seeing all kinds of bucks durring archery season they seemed to have went underground when firearms opened. This was the 1'st buck I've seen in a while. Had a 19" spread and I think I have his sheds from last season. I couldn't be happier to have nailed this dude with me trusty smokepole. Shot was perfect double lung and he went about 40yds before piling up. I've really had to work for this one and persistance finally paid off.

Did you at least save the cape just incase something happens and you are able to mount him? Is this your biggest buck?

woolybear Posted November 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2010 Thanx for the comments and checking him out everyone. He wasn't my best but a trophy indeed the way this seasons been unfolding for me. Just haven't been seeing much at all this gun season and the rut seemed very short lived in my area at the end of archery. I'm going to do a euro on him and take some better photos today with my Nikon to display together somehow. I don't have any trail cam pics of him yet unless he walked by my last cam I never got around to checking one ridge away from where I killed him. That would be a nice bonus. My guess is he's only a nice 2 1/2 yo. Really small body on him compared to others in the area and all he really has going for him with his rack is width. One thing I found slightly odd is he was working a browse line with 2 other bucks already. Another shooter and a 1 horn spiker. The lack of food sources this year and the recent winter weather seem to have put them in winter bachelor groups already hence the recent lack of sightings. Was just a real nice(crappy) day to do some still hunting and I was fortunate to catch up with this guy. Again, thanks for looking and all the comments.:smoke: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
