whats your story?

I think Rod is asking is where did you get the picture from and what is the accompanying story with it.

I'm interested too. It looks like an older picture

By far the ugliest rack i have ever seen, i am glad somone put him out of his missery.

that is an ugly rack. it's not too often i would say that, but it's ugly.

Post by: ing on November 18, 2009, 11:44:54 AM: Wow, a 30" buck and you guys are calling it ugly... I bet you'd pull he trigger on him if you had the chance.
Title: Re: Anyone shoot or know the story of this buck?
Post by: Swiftkid on November 18, 2009, 11:47:08 AM: 30" tall? Your sounding like you shot it ing? :dunno:

Post by: bow4elk on November 18, 2009, 11:47:43 AM: ..or an identity crisis...am I a Booner or a pup? :dunno:

I don't think 'ugly' has much to do with whether or not it would be passed in this case. Odd looking rack regardless.

It is really not that big of a buck, no way it is 30", maybe 25" to 26".. Not heavy, not great forks, kind of an ugly deer, I would shoot him, but he aint that big.

Post by: squeeze2drop on November 18, 2009, 02:18:59 PM: I would have no probs shootin this buck, and I'd venture to say a lot of guys feel the same, we can all say we would or wouldn't shoot it on here, but its a diff story when you actually see it in your crosshairs, just my opinion

Post by: jackelope on November 18, 2009, 04:43:48 PM: he's got deep forks...i'd shoot him, don't get me wrong, but he's wierd looking with those flaired out backs. if it weren't for them he'd be 22" wide...maybe 28 wide now?
