What is the Governors tag? How do ya get it? Whats the details?
In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

Its a 180 buck.  Some trash, not bad, but surely could do better.  Not my tag though.

That's a pretty good decription Longtatlaw.  I think they were going for a little cheaper this year due to the recession, since they are bid on.  Still, about the cost of a new pickup...

 That's nuts. You could kill a 180 buck in every State in the West for that money. I 'd put a chunk down on my own parcel for that kind of cash, at least you'd have in investment, to each their own, at least the money goes back into the Dept., that is a plus.

I agree Dman.   There were alot of special permit bucks just from members on this site that I thought were more impressive.  ITs okay though, its his money and his tag.  It is a cool buck.  I don't know the guy at all or anything.  Just talking caliber of deer.

 Looks like a very nice buck to me, given the opportunity I would have pulled the trigger too. Congrats to the hunter! :tup:

not my pic to post maybe someone knows the guy and can get permission or the hunter himself will post it! it was a good buck! as far as it being worthy of the gov tag :dunno:  that's all in the tag holders eyes! i guess it was or he wouldn't have shot it. for some reason i don't think i will ever have that dilemma :chuckle:
