Many have seen the Lone wolf bow but if not here it is...kinda a bad pic


I love the Illinois plaque...Not a Bad buck either


Full body mount, but a buck like this is worth it if you have that kinda cash...

I only took a few pictures. The one on the antler pedastels caught my eye and I had to have a picture of it.

The other is one of our own... NObody else took any pictures of this buck?

Also known as.... Lady Forge. I looked for this thing specifically.

I did stop and talk to Greg and Pat at the Bowtech booth. They weren't giving any bows away this year though.[:@]

Said Hey to christine as well. Everybody said justin was there, but he was never available when I went by the booth.

Which one of you guys was wearing an orange HNI hat and is kind of slim and tall. Saw him from a distance, but never could catch up to him.

That tall slim guy would probably be me, 6' 3" and 185#. And I was wearing my orange HNI cap after I got it from Christine.

I also went to the classic yesterday and enjoyed it very much.I also met a few of the HNIers such as gregMO and Christine, bot were great people. I agree with jm buckhunter, the boothsweren't that great. However, the mounts was really what I was going for anyway. The deer on the pedastal was taken by my taxi right here in Morgan county. He mounted the deer that I just got back last week and posted for you guys to see. He does great work: If your interested its Life Like taxidermy in Jacksonville, IL. I know it has been posted but here is another pic of it.



Here's a picture of the drop tine buck someone mentioned earlier. That is a perfect rack.


And heres a few more that I took, including lady forge's buck.
