Well I have some bitter sweet news. The buck I shot earlier in the season was found over the weekend by my brother. I was hoping it was not a fatal shot and the deer was still out there however it looks like he traveled 500 yards and finally bedded down and died. Our property is heavy CRP and when you don't have a good blood trail it is very difficult to find anything in it. Surprisingly the yotes had not found it either. The shot placement was a little high thus allowing him to travel that far and no blood trail. Here are a couple pics for you guys. The left brow tine is split. It scored at 128" even gross. Sucks but at least it was found, I have decided to have a friend do a European mount which I think will look good.

Our coyote population around this property is way down over the last few years. Did not get a single one on our trail cams and they were out for 2 months prior to gun season.

Post the picture in the Offical 2011-2012 Picture Post, Score Card.
And the score will go to your team.
I wish you got a picture of you, the buck, and the gun in it before you cut it up.
Just remember if it happens again, to get pictures, O.K.
