Boy I'd be tickled to be able to put my tag on a buck like that! Great job,nice shooting and I'm digging the throw back plaid flannel! Do you only wear the green or some red too? I've got red and a lighter pattern as well. I'm liking it so far. Much cheaper than camo Thinking of making the switch next year |

Super nice deer,has that tree stand been around awhile? That was originally a permanent stand built in the late 70's. In 1984 my Dad rebuilt it. It's mostly fallen down now. I've been putting a ladder stand in the same cluster of trunks for the past few years. There have been a lot of deer killed from that stand over the last 40 years. |

Judging by tooth wear I believe this buck was 4.5 years old. I compared it to the set of jawbones I have saved from previous deer that I knew the age of. I have 1.5 - 4.5 in my collection.

Congrats scrub! Knowing how much you are into the “Trad” deal, I love it that you smoked that dude with with the crossbow! That’s a really nice buck! I love hunting with traditional archery equipment. If I could routinely fill my freezer with a stick and string that would be all that I used. Unfortunately, I'm not good enough to do that. I use a crossbow and firearms to get the job done. The majority of traditional bowhunters hate crossbows. I have a lot of friends that feel that way. When I cook steaks or burgers for them I like to remind them that the deer was killed with a crossbow. So far none of them have turned down the meal. |

I deal with the same crap at work from the vertical bow guys. Still a stick and string. They think crossbow and assume rifle. They bash gun season and the orange army, yet they all don an orange helmet in Nov. Same guys bring me their guns to sight in every year. Just sad! |

We`re all deer hunters, and therefore, we`re all conservationists, we all contribute to the Pittman-Robertson Act monies and the state DNR`s. Whether you hunt with a flintlock, or in-line muzzleloader, whether you hunt with a recurve, compound or crossbow, whether you hunt with a slug gun, PCR, or a centerfire rifle, we`re all hunters. We all put our time in scouting, preparing, and put time in, in the weather on stand. Nevermind the tool used, we`re all hunters. Those who believe they're somehow superior to others need to do a reality check. |
