Very cool story and congrats to your Mom on a great buck!
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.

Tell her congrats. Was that a Washington buck?

Too cool.  Congrats to Mom, and her guide.

thanks guys. her and my dad were hunting about a mile away from where i was and we shot our deer about 45 minutes apart and had no idea that eachother had shot one until my brother got on the radio and told my dad that i had shot one and he was like well that makes #2 because your mom just shot one. It was a great day for all. My brother was tagging along with me to help me packout and my dad went with my mom. all in all it was a great day.

I'll say not bad.  It took me 5 years of hunting mule deer to shoot one that size.  Congrats again.  Great pics.

I still haven't shot one that big. I told her not to expect that every year, but you never know.

Awesome buck and awesome story. Congrats to her on battling the cancer. I am a survivor myself (almost 9 years now) and my old man is battlin' it now. I know how challenging it can be for everyone. Nothing like a big old buck to lift your spirits up.
