Raffle Buck from a Few Years Ago
« on: October 12, 2009, 07:55:18 PM »
Most of you have probably seen this one, but for those of you that haven't... here's a WA bruiser.  I was down to the wire, figured I'd end up eating the tag, but even a blind hog gets an acorn once in a while - I'd rather be lucky than good anyday!

He's only 28 1/2" wide, but has over 65" of mass on him.  Has a few inches of antler tips missing, but intact would come in right at 190" even.

Even got to share it with my dad...

Enjoy!

That's a monster, his head almost looks too small for his body and that rack.
