Looks like what would be someone's dream buck. I told him that he needed to say a prayer every night that he didnt break that club off because it was so big. Well he updated me with a pic this morning that the drop tine was now gone. I guess thats how it goes. He's prob a low 130's and is a shooter by most people standards. Do you let him walk this year with hopes he will have that drop again next year? I told him to smoke him. Last edited by BPS; 08/28/14 04:39 AM.

OOOPs my bad, BPS said it was an 8pt, I still won't shoot at 130" and/or less than 4yo. Last edited by 2Dogs; 08/28/14 08:29 AM. "Why do you ask"? Always vote the slowest path to socialism.

All with a bow. He had another good one on camera last year. He shot it and couldnt find it. So at this point he hasnt killed a really nice one. Having killed bigger deer with a rifle, I still havent killed a signature deer with a bow and I would gladly smoke him. If your decoy doesnt have holes in it, your not letting him get close enough...

I like to keep them as legit as possible when I killed them. Letting him walk doesnt mean that it will grow back next year. Of course it could grow back on both sides and sure enough be a freak.
