This is a great forum will some great stories. Heres a buck I took the second weekend of the 06 season in Auburn. I can't wait to get it back from the taxidermist, it dressed out at 173.

I don't see the buck, stop teasing.

 

[WickedHunt]

Sorry about that, I fixed it

Nice buck! Welcome to the boards!

 

[ccobbett]

That is a great Auburn Buck. Bow or rifle? What is the story?

 

[kenton6]

Nice rack on that one! Congrats. Oh BTW did you read where newbies must bring the venison to the annual MHF cookout?

People call it luck I call it a well placed shot.

He ran across the field at full speed and stopped at the edge in some tall grass. All I could see was his neck and head. I put the cross hairs on his neck and pulled the trigger. after the shot I couldn't see or hear anything. I thought I missed him. 30 minutes later I went looking. There he was lying in the tall grass. The bullet went through his ear. If you look at the first picture you can see that his left antler is cracked at the base. the bullet went through his right ear. There was no entrance wound or exit wound. I'm still baffled. That shot was about 160 yds with a .270 and 150gr. bullet. Everyone calls it the luckiest shot the've seen, I call it a very well placed shot that didn't ruin an ounce of meat. LOL

Umm I hadn't read that about bringing the venison, nor did I know about an MHF cookout. where do I get info

 

[kenton6]

errr....uhhh....I think Jack's in charge of that! :camp5::boink:

Just to clarify, that was a joke. Welcome to the forums.

I think Steve should post a picture.....then I'll decide if I'm coming.

 

[WickedHunt]

OK Now i'm curious to

 

[WickedHunt]

I have a question, does anyone know just by looking at the photo of my deer what it would score(roughly). I know officially it wouldn't count because the antler was broken, but I was thinking 120-130 any thoughts?

 

[Norm]

Nice buck and welcome to the forum Wicked....

 

[kenton6]

I saw one once that looked similar that pushed 140 but that's just a guess.

 

[aroostookbasser]

"Wicked" good to have you here....read everything..post often.

 

[Cap'n Jack Duggins]

I think it could score in that area. Not real big mass but pretty even, and tall tines!
