Nothing quite like those benchleg bucks.  Brings back memories from when I was a kid chasing them in the snow.  But I never did get lucky.  Thanks for posting.  That fat horned one must have been a hog.

Pretty cool stuff.  I wonder if one day my grandkids will go through my trophies and remember the stories about them...

Your Grampa killed some studs!

How cool it would have been to sit around a campfire listening to the stories  :tup:

Great Pictures!!!  I grew up in the county where some of these bucks were taken.  Still a few big bucks around but nothing like it used to be.
