Title: Hoping to set a new record
Post by: TeamBoyd on November 07, 2010, 09:35:52 PM: Looking at all the nice bucks shot this year is getting me siked. I'm hoping to set a new personal record with a buck from the Alta unit with my quality deer tag. Here is my best one so far. I shot him on slide ridge several years back.

Why are the antlers so dark on the plaque?

Post by: TeamBoyd on November 07, 2010, 09:46:06 PM: They are dark because I had just wiped the dust off them for the picture. They are still wet in the picture. I really hope I can find his big brother. I have already decided to pass them all unless I think they are bigger. Maybe on the last day I will dump a smaller one if the opportunity comes up.

Post by: TeamBoyd on November 08, 2010, 11:50:44 AM: teanawayslayer - I have the modern tag. Hoping for a little weather this week. I will be on the mountian again Friday and hunting till the end of the season. I think I saw that you have the same tag or is it the muzzy?
Title: Re: Hoping to set a new record
Post by: teanawayslayer on November 08, 2010, 05:07:49 PM: yeah it's a muzzy tag. Saw a couple bucks over there sat. The one good one I saw 3x4 with eye guards good buck but wouldn't beat that 5 you have in the pic. a little wider though.
