bullwidgeon Report post Posted February 7, 2006 My dad Billy killed it. Ben is my uncle. I haven't seen it dead. I saw it alive a few times on video. It is a good one. I was out of town all last week so I don't know the entire deal yet or have pics maybe when I go down there for HAM season I will see the rack and get a picture or two. Bret M.

bullwidgeon Report post Posted March 1, 2006 Here is the buck. My uncle found it in velvet. It disapeared shortly after going hard horned for awhile. It showed back up during the rut and my dad finally got it in late January with his bow after it chased a doe down a trail he was sitting near. They worked hard for the deer. Not bad for archery unit 45A . They haven't had it officially scored yet (I think it has to dry longer) but it should be around 120 net or so. Bret M.
