My biggest buck with a bow!!!!!!!!
 
Well i am a new member to this site, but i couldn't help but share with all of you my biggest buck with a bow to date!

On the evening of Oct. 30th I decided to hunt a scrape line that had been freshly worked after the early morning rains. I had killed a nice buck out of this woodlot the year before with my rifle. I setup downwind of the scrape line with a lot of territorial buck urine and a dab of doe estrus to aid in drawing in a big buck. At about 4:15 i heard limbs snaping behind me. As i turned to look i could see his antlers. I knew he wasn't the new state record or anything, but he was decent enough. He circled and caught the scent i laid out. He stopped and surveyed the area at 22 yards for about 10 minutes, giving me enough time to decide that if he gave me a good shot opportunity i would take it. He took a couple of more steps into an open shooting lane and slightly quartered away from me. I put the range finder on him and it read 18 yards. I pulled the Hoyt Vipertec back to full draw and settled in right behind the front shoulder. I released and the Grim Reaper found its mark. The buck bolted, almost like he was not hit. He ran and stopped about 50 yards away. Then, he stumbled and made a last ditch effort to escape his doom, no such luck though. He expired about 80 yards from my stand. And at 4:30 I watched my trophy fall. The memory of the hunt will definately be at the top of my list, as he was my first "trophy" (every deer is a trophy) buck. He has 11 points with two kickers at the base. I dont know the score and I am not too worried about it, it wouldn't make any difference if he scored 100 inches or 200!:D

Just thought I would share my hunting experience with you all!!

Man what a good pic...That thing looks like it weighs 300lbs. Back thighs are huge! I gotta guess youaren't hunting the midwest or that rack would be bigger. Maybe the body is so big the rack looks smaller than it really is. Either way, definately an atta boy from south carolina.

Great buck, HUGE body. But for the life of me I don't understand why people hide their state on their profile.

In reply to ducsauce: He field dressed right at 185 lbs. A fairly hefty brute.

In reply to jachunter: I am hunting the midwest, might not be your typical midwest caliber rack, but good enough for me!!:D

In reply to Bionicrooster: Sorry for hiding where i was from, i hunt north-central Missouri, just wanted to keep it a secret as long as i could!!!;):D
