RE: Finally, found buck!
I tend to agree with rack on this. Sure he was in the right place at the right time for the shot, but it just isn' t what I would call a bow kill.
My reasoning for this, There is a guy I know who has two really nice bucks on his wall. Both 140 class. Both shot with a bow and not recovered for some time afterward. One of them he didn' t even find until he was scouting the following summer. He purchased capes for both of the deer and had them mounted anyways which is fine to admire these great bucks, they made beautiful mounts. But he brags to everyone about the two big bucks on his wall that he took with his bow. To me that isn' t fine. JMO though.
