New. last years buck
« on: November 03, 2008, 08:23:57 PM »


3x4.  Shot from 10feet.  I had seen this buck earlier in the morning and jumped him. No shot.  The buck ran into an alder thicket.  A few hours later, my buddie decides he's going to try find this buck in the thicket. (Assuming he's still there).  I'm sitting against a tree half asleep when I hear a branch break to my right.  Heres the buck standing just a few feet away looking right at me.  I wait and he doesnt get alarmed and trots a few feet and turns around to check me out again. KABOOM! I think I missed where did he go. Wait there he is. 1 shot throught the neck from approximately 10 feet.  Huge neck.  Biggest buck ever for me. Can't wait to get the head back, I'm having a shoulder mount done.

Nice buck!  I'm convinced that I'm about 15 - give or take a few - years overdue for this kind of luck.  Nice job!
