Well, I've passed on a MANY smaller bucks so far this season. I'll have to go back through my journal to see just how many.... but it's been a lot. I've been very blessed to see the number of bucks that I've seen this year so far. Well tonight, I decided to fill my tag! We've got quite a few bigger bucks on trailcam this season, but my only goal was to take one bigger than the one I have on the wall....... and I certainly did that tonight! The ole .45 cal Muzzleloader dropped him in his tracks..... no tracking job on this one! He's no monster, like what's been showing up on some of the forums around here... but he is MY TROPHY buck for this season! I went buck-less last year.... looking for one bigger than the one I've got mounted. But not this year... I finally found one that makes me happy for this season!! Next year... on to bigger and better things! Gotta have something to look forward to... right?!?! I've got to give a big THANK YOU to my good buddy TheRomer!!! He has been very kind in letting me trailcam, and hunt his family property with him! It has been a BLAST hanging out, trailcamming, and hunting with him..... he's the BEST! Thanks buddy!!!!!!!!! Anyhooooo, here he is... and he's got a sweet kicker (6 1/8" long) coming out the side of his right base and curving back forward.... Kinda Cool!

Me and Romer was amazed at his body size.... he was HUGE!!
My neighbor (avid hunter), saw him after he was field dressed....... and said that he would bet money this buck would tip 200 lbs dressed!
All I know is.......... he is BIG!!!!
Thanks guys!

That's a monster. I'd shoot a deer his size next year too, if I was you.
