In hindsight I really wish I had a photo of that: headlamp, dirty as hell in Under Armour and Danner Boots. I would elaborate on the story but you wouldn't believe me anyway. lol

Your brother gave me a look at that photo when we got together after the deer drive.  That buck is a high scorer.  Solid 200 plus.  Chuck is probably still shaking.  Quite the story you told us.  Took me a little while to figure out what was going on with your partner.  But then when you said your pack weighed 150 or 160 pounds I just have to figure that you went in loaded for a full week, and I wouldn't leave 30 pounds of fresh Whiskey in the hills either.  How much liquid weight did your partner unload from your pack on the walk out?  That is way heavy.  You are some kind of Conan.

That buck is big. I can't tell from the pic but Chuck said that through the bino's that it was a perfectly symetrical 4x4 with matching eyeguards and had great mass. Hope he can find him.

Great buck Highhunter!  Way to go!
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Is it me or does that back drop and log look exactly like the backdrop of the buck that was shot last year in the high hunt????


Nice deer, congrats.
