Title: Big bro got 1 in Montana
Post by: shoot-em-dead on November 24, 2012, 12:45:40 PM: Montana buck shot on 11-22-12 He watched it on 11-20 for a couple hours and decided to pass hoping for a bigger 1 and then went back two days later and found the buck in the same canyon. He waited for a good shot and closed the deal.

Post by: shoot-em-dead on November 24, 2012, 09:18:23 PM: It was on his in-laws ranch so lots of private property and he claims he has seen bigger. The only thing he told me about size is that it is 27 inches wide. I would have whacked that hog as soon as I seen it but he seems to have more patience than I do.

Post by: carpsniperg2 on November 24, 2012, 09:30:17 PM: Yeah that makes sense to me. I would have whacked him to. I am use to my benchlegs and not the true mule deer :chuckle: But with private ground and bigger bucks in the area I can't blame him for shopping around a little :chuckle:
