That's not the sneak pose, would you call it the curious pose. Nice work Bone!!

I wondered that as well....I didn't think it looked symmetrical with the two muleys and whitetail.  My arguement was to put 4 deer on the wall.  I lost though, its a 3 deer wall maximium.

I was there to see Boneaddict get the Glenn St. Charles award last night at the Washington State Bowhunters banquet for this buck.  It was a fun event.  Congrats Bone.  I expect you will keep the trophy plaque in good condition as I am planning/hoping that it will be hanging on my wall next year...  :)

 :rolleyes:  I see a wall in the back ground that looks pretty bare.  I think a deer might fit on it.   :IBCOOL:

Your going to have to explain this award to me, because I have never heard of it befor.

The way it was explained at the banquet is the winner must shoot an animal and score it.  The animal closest to the WA record percentage wise wins it...?  Someone correct me if they know but that's the jist of it.  So I figure my 240" Rosey bull might win it next year...  We'll see.

Again, Congrats! The Glenn St. Charles award is a prestigious honor. Any pictures of the event, award presentation, or the trophy plaque?

Is it just any old set of horns from an animal you've killed or does it have to be killed that year or year previous.

I am so mad.  Didn't realize that the banquet was in Tacoma.  Thats only about a 40 minute drive from my place.   :bash: :bash: :bash:

Sorry, I didn't bring my camera but maybe I should have.  Dennis Dunn did a presentation and hosted the auction.  There were some great trips and prizes.  I tried to win a couple but got outbid.  I must say if someone wants a new bow next year go to this auction.  There were some top quality bow setups going for 300-400 dollars...  :o

I think you have to shoot the animal with a bow that previous season to enter the Glenn St. Charles award.  That's the impression I received.
