Is there anything better than hunting?
Last Day Idaho Buck Down
«

November 04, 2015, 04:38:45 PM »
Left for Idaho last Thursday to hunt the last 5 days of the season. Hunted hard but the rut just wasn't kicking in. Finally last night I started seeing some decent rut activity. Early this morning on the last day of the season I made the choice to pass on a decent buck and about 5 minutes later I was blessed with this buck of a lifetime! Beautiful country, not many places prettier than the Salmon River Breaks. Steep but breathtaking.

That is a great deer, dark and heavy for sure and I am not sure you could get much deeper forks.
Congrats on an awesome deer.

The forks are great and make him score big. Back forks are 14" and fronts are about 12". Green score 185 7/8.
See where he is at after he dries.

I would have guessed 180, great deer, should be close to the 185 even after it dries. After 150-160 they are just big.
Congrats.
