Winthrop Deer
« on: October 26, 2009, 07:00:43 AM »
Not too much of a story on this one. I hunted for 6 days seeing a lot of small bucks and does but this was the first legal buck I saw. This was in the Pearrygin burn behind a gated road a few miles back. I came around a corner and saw a doe standing in the burnt timber and then noticed a small buck above her. The small buck bedded down and kept looking above him but I could not see what he was looking at. Finally through the burnt timber I noticed legs from another deer. I moved a few feet to get a better look and when he turned I noticed it was a buck with about an ear width rack. I waited for about 10 minutes for him to finally move to where I could see if he had a third point or not. He was standing quartering away from me when I took the shot and he walked about 20 yards before he fell over after the shot. Nothing big, just a standard 20" wide 3 point but he had a pretty big body on him. Since I was 3-4 miles back I decided to bone him out and pack him out.

He is a 3x3 but is hard to tell by the pictures. One side is about 3" and the other is about 5".

Yes he is a 3x3 without eyeguards. The pictures are all from the front so they don't show the 3rd points too well. The 3rd points fork off the main and not the G2.
