125" if I'm not mistaken.

I live in NC....are you serious.....lol? I haven't SEEN a live P&Y buck, yet!

Count me in the ZERO group.....and I just finished my first full yr and second, bowhunting.
I concur!:eek:
Three year's ago I would have agreed but two years ago I passed on a 140 8-point because I like what I was finally seeing. This year I never hunted too much around my house because my neighbor's son (my inherited son if you know what I mean) started bow hunting and I wanted him to get one of them. But I had 4 - 6 running around my neighborhood. Next year should be awesome.

I've bow hunted for 26 years and never taken home a p&y white tail. Missed some, lost two. Seen crap loads of 125+. Shot a 131+ in Montana with a rifle. Still working on it with a bow.

Still working on #1 in 3 years of hunting. Have seen a few both in state and out of state, but never could close the deal. Next year will be the year!

3 whitetails and one caribou.

Shed, #2 when you killed it? Amazing. Congratulations on what is obviously a tremendous accomplishment! My dad killed a buck in the mid 80's that at the time was top 10 ever killed in Ohio by a hunter, let alone a bowhunter,and now I don't know if it is even top 50. It is amazing how the deer keep getting bigger. I'll have to post a picture of his deer sometime though, it is amazing. Over 20 scorable points and most are brow tines as it was only a base 8 point. I've never seen anything that compares. I would like to see a picture of your buck Shed. Must be something to behold.

Been bow hunting on/off since 1978 and probably hunted a total of 14 years(due to time constraints). Of those 14seasons i went out a couple of times forhalf of them and hunted alot for the other half. During my "obsessive" years I was fortunate enough to shoot a P&Y that just made the "book"(125 2/8). There are not many entries from my area since we are over run with deer. I consider myself very fortunate to have taken one. I just got back into bow hunting(2006) after a 10 year absence.

16 years of serious bow hunting - 0 p&y deer. Have 2 that didn't miss by much, but I'll keep trying.

5 in last 4 years, zero for the previous 13 years. Haven't measured any of them, won't, and will never enter one in the record books unless it's a potential record (I'll worry about that when it happens! he he he).....
