PA Opening Day Buck
I hunted in Sullivan County PA yesterday and managed a nice buck despite the weather. Rain and fog made for crappy conditions. I was, however, able to get within 15 yards of a nice buck on the ground and connect late in the day. It's a heavy-beamed 6-point with a 17 inch spread, tall tines and main beams that sweep forward. I thought it was a big 8-point at first but I'm in no way disappointed. This was my first archery buck. I had a few does with the bow and many buck with the rifle, but no buck with bow. Now I do and he's going to the taxidermist. Estimated live weight is around 190lb per the chart in the butcher's shop that shows dressed weight vs. live weight.
