Title: 30" 2 point
Post by: MtnMuley on January 09, 2010, 09:44:44 PM: Was digging through some pictures and figured I'd post this one. Many talk of 30"ers, but as a straight two point, I haven't seen many pics. This is the second one I've seen and first to get a pic of. Sorry for the quality.

Post by: GrainfedMuley on January 10, 2010, 04:43:34 AM: Opening afternoon this past year, in the middle of a wide open wheat feild. I saw a bachlor group of 6 bucks. ALL of them were two points. I swear on my mothers grave stone that the biggest two point in the bunch would give the one pictured here, a serious run for his money...... :dunno:. He was about 600 yards out but I could clearly see that his antlers were wider than his ears by a long shot. In the unit I am hunting, the gammie told me that they were going to have a two point permit hunt to try and cull some of them out.

Post by: Red Dawg on January 10, 2010, 07:17:43 AM: we killed one like that in Idaho this year. not quite as wide but the sucker was at least 26 in off of the top of the head. he was a brute and I passed him up last year and this year. Steve shot him and when I saw him up close I wish I would have done the same. Sorry I just had to tell the story. Great pick.

Post by: Cascade_Sherpa on January 11, 2010, 04:11:14 PM: I wonder if some of these bucks have regressed from decent racks to only having two points while retaining some of the width?

Definately not the case. Genetics.
