I got this bruiser in Dec. "03". I just got out of school for the christmas break, drove 6 hours and got up the next morning only to see this big boy appear out of no where. He was all scarred up. Patches of fur missing all over his neck and front quarter. Two broken tines made him a 12 point. The kicker to the story is that it was so hot that day in texas that I had to pack up and drive home so that my meat would not ruin.
