Nice Michigan Buck

My buddy shot this a couple of weeks ago.  I'm not a big whitetail guy but the safety would have come off for this pig.

Michigan has the highest density of bowhunters in the country.  Pulling a mature buck out of that state is no small feat, regardless of weapon - tell him Congrats!!

GREAT BUCK!!   There are a ton of deer in southern michigan and many good quality bucks, there are also a ton of basket racks too.  The trick is getting permission from the landowners, any state property in southern Michigan is over run with hunters.   I used a canoe to get away from most of them.

That's a great deer.  I don't think I have ever seen one hung, or hanged that way....
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.

That is a dandy buck.  Doesn't look like your buddy is any stranger to big whitetails, judging by the rest of the bucks in the first picture! :drool:
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.
