yotebuster Report post Posted October 15, 2008 Hey guys, new on here, just got misplaced down here from ND for a few years for school. I missed my first archery whitetail opener back home this year in 17 years, it made me sick!!! My buddy arrowed a buck that would have been mine for opener, ended up grossing 174. Anyhow, figured i'd put up a pic of my buck from last year, grossed 162. It was the biggest bodied buck I've ever seen, I didn't weigh him, but would guarantee he went 250-275 lb on the hoof. He was a 7 1/2 year old that my bro missed the year before at 15 yards (lucky for me!!). Well, hope you guys enjoy a few pics from back home, let me know if you want me to put more up!!!

yotebuster Report post Posted October 15, 2008 I figured you guys would wanna see it!!! Didn't wanna go over board right off the bat!! We found this guy this summer, you could set your watch by him, I knew he was gonna kill him opening night, I had to move down to glendale 3 days before opener!! Talk about anxiety! The other buck is one I shot a few years ago about 3 miles from where he got his, the resemblance is uncanny, theres even a bump on the mainbeam of his where the little drop tine is on mine. They were both 4 year olds when killed, so I think mine musta done a little breeding the year before I killed him. Oh, you'll have to bear with my buddy, he takes horrible pictures!!! Spend 200 hours scouting, then he can't take an extra 5 minutes to take a tasteful pic!!! We got one other dudes sheds from last year that scored high 160's as a 3 1/2 year old, couldn't find him this summer, but I have a gun tag back home thats gonna get wrapped around his antler over thanksgiving break!!! Fingers crossed... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The national guard has been an awesome way to pay for school, and still ahve a little cash to go hunting now and then. The way I understood it, all active miliatary members can hunt ft. huachuca??? That's why I asked on the ohter post, sorry for the confusion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
