Fall of 87, start of my Senior year of high school.  Man I'm feeling old....

I put the "way back" part to be funny.  This buck was shot in southern Idaho on a special permit.  It was shot in October.  Somewhere around what I believe is referred to as "Black Monday" (October 19, 1987).  The older guys that had money invested in stocks will know what i'm talking about.

Probably shot around my day of birth.  I was born during the rut of '87.   :chuckle:

Well....DUH.... :chuckle:

It is still an awful nice buck that I had a lot of fun hunting.

Thanks 257, it was the littlest buck I ever killed with such a nice rack.  I didn't weigh him but bet he didn't weigh a pound over 140lbs even though he was real close to 30" wide outside to outside.

I was hunting in Idaho in the fall of 87, and I was 32.
