Default Remember this guy? Lucky day for me!


Well I went out shed hunting to a place I pound every year looking for sheds.... I have only found one shed there before today (very thick in their wintering area of the property).... It was actually a shed of a buck I ended up killing a couple years later, also a non typical..... So, hopefullythis shed brings me good karma.... I am going to hunt him hard (read smart!)this fall and hope this shed treats me like the last one from this property

So I am sure some of you guys remember me posting a few game cam pics of this guy over the summer......

He is pretty busted up but has no chew marks... His brow tine is busted off as well as a kicker off his base after heshed velvet. He broke a point in velvet as well as documented in the photo to follow.

Here he is with the broken point hanging down only held on by a little velvet...

Here he is showing his brow tine and the kicker off his right base in hard antler....



And finally todays find!



I just taped him out at 77 4/8's as is with the broken points... Adding 7 inches on to account for his 3 broken tines, he would have sported an 84 4/8's side! Looks like I may have a absolute hammer of a buck on my hands next year [8D]
