firstcoueswas80 Report post Posted November 2, 2006 thanks Christian! im not 100% sure of unit, but they usually hint 34a, but last year they either hunted 35a or b so it could be from either one of those units. i will ask him today. he shot this buck with one shot from his 6.5x55 mauser through the shoulders and top of the heart, buck didnt move a muscle.

firstcoueswas80 Report post Posted November 3, 2006 this is the story as my cousin told me: the unit is 34a. him and his dad crossed a fence, right when they crossed the fence, they spotted a forky. my uncle asked my cousin if he wants to shoot and he says no. they look around for another deer and find this buck. my cousin runs to the nearest tree and guesses the distance. he made a gorgous shot and the deer ran 10 feet and died. he hit the buck right in the heart with his 6.5x55. no idea on the score, but im thinking right around 95".... either way a heck of a buck. this is his 2nd buck. his first is a beautiful buck with a small 3x3 basket rack.
