While out hare hunting in Southern NH yesterdayI came across this guy a long way from any road. The coyotes had eaten EVERYTHING except his feet and the top of his head, including the ribs. There wasn't a single scratch on his rack though. He's a real beauty, nice main frame 10 with 2 stickers. I have to think he was wounded as it is hard to believe a buck like this, which would have gone over 200lbs in this area, would have been coyote bait.
I know I would still be moping if I had lost this guy!
