yeah it's a florida buck.
got him opening morning of muzzleloader season.
dropped him at about 17yds.
it was the most emotional intense moment in my life....all i could do was hyperventilate...lol.

the 8pt is mine too....he's still my favorite even though he's smaller.
i had hunted the same place for years and dreamed every hunt that i'd get a 8pt at this one fallen tree next to the creek...and one morning it happened EXACTLY where i had dreamed about...it couldn't have been more perfect.

i spoke to my ex taxidermist tonite...she actually returned a call.
i'll be bringing my 10pt. in hopefully this weekend and she's gonna touch up the paint and see what she can do about the ridge....she does AWESOME work...even puts vains in the nostrils.
found out she still has my feet from the 8pt that i had done for my gun rack but thought she had lost them cause she never returned any of my calls.....at least something good happened.
