Awesome buck Bone, Incredible story as well, congratulations on both!

Thankyou!


I know I preach score doesn't matter on a lot of bucks, but it was killing me not having a tape on the mountain.   I got down to Idabooners and he grabbed a tape measure off the wall in his shop when I pulled up.   He is just short of 30 inches outside.     I got home and knew hed score pretty good because he is so even and the perfect example of what Pope/Boone "likes".   

He has 20+ inches of mass on each side
27 inch mains
25 inch inside.
2 inch eyeguards
the rest add up to about 194 gross and with minimal deductions I got 191 net.   

Hide and Seek was 193+ gross, 178+ Net.

With a long bow no less, way to go. Will you have him officially scored?

Awesome story and a well deserved animal on the ground. It just doesn't get any better than that. Kinda like the "Thrill of victory and the agony of defeat" but opposite.  :tup:

Kirk, I thought I might have seen you in the canyon scouting on the way home.  It looked like you but not a rig I recognized.  I almost whipped around and showed you, though if it hadn't been you, might have been a bit weird.
