At least Googily made for a very interesting summer/fall on the trailcams, Caleb. Hopefully he passed on his genes before he met his demise on the evening of Nov 6th.
Only had one sighting of him during season, and that at a distance, even though I thought I had him pretty well pegged. Seemed like the conditions were always against me hunting him, and I only entered the area when all was in my favor. I think he was off on a 2 or 3 day jaunt, and was probably in an unfamiliar area when he was taken. Approx 4 miles from where he spent the summer.
He made the local papers, and while I have yet to hear an official score, the tally was 14 pts, 20 inch spread, and somewhere just shy of 170.
I passed on copies of 10-12 of the best pics I had gotten during his developement to someone who reportedly knew the young mans mother, left all the contact info if he wanted to reach me, but no response from him. I do not think he was too hardcore, and didn't realize the quality of the trophy he had taken.

Oh well, onward to this season.........but it won't be the same for me, I suspect. Hopefully I will be surprised, and have some respectable pics to post this summer.
