WOW.  Amazing Bull and good story.  What a good conversation piece to have hanging on your wall and he has the pictures of the end of it's life.  Sad he went that way but great that the hunter did the right thing and was rewarded with the rack.  Cool story.

Nice job Minnesota DNR.  WDFW would never do that.  Probably would charge him with a crime for taking the pictures before notifying them.

Heres a better pic of the rack. To bad an animal like this had to die like it did.
Remember that buck is climbing that Mt. every day!
