best buck so far
well i just took my best buck to date. i have been bowhunting public land in northern michigan for 30 years. i have taken 17 bucks with a bow over that 30 years with several of them being nice 8 points but no real giants, until yesterday. i finally broke my 8 point rut with a great 11 point. he has an inside spread of just about 19 inches with good mass, just lacks a bit in tine length , but i am thrilled. took him while hunting off the ground using an old bear polar with no sights or release. shot him at twenty feet when he stepped out from behind a big white pine tree that i was hiding behind. i will post some pics in a couple days when they get back from the developer. sorry i am still living with a 35 mm, have not moved in to the digital era yet.
