Problem is Germ, this is PA, they are probably all dead....now If I see or get a pic, that could happen but remember, I'm giving up a week here, prime week to go to IL.

Matt, what state/county was that buck taken? That's a dandy!!

If you are available that week in November, you should apply for a doe tag for me in 3B! Dan and I will be in my camp for at least half of that week.
That was the Finger Lakes region of NY.......and I just might do that if Rob doesn't love me anymore.

Depends on the angle (broadside/quartered). But let's not go there.
LOL Ever so slightly quartered and trust me that shot was spot on PERFECT. tucked right in that angle behind the leg, below the shoulder. (would be just as devastating on a broadside animal too)
Oh and that is a Slick Trick 1 1/8" Mag deer.
They all work when they are placed that well. I wouldn't want Russ shooting at me. [:-]

Chewy knows he's welcome too........I've got about 5 different solid funnels to hunt on the property. I don't really rifle hunt anymore so that's the last week I'mthere, I don't mind hunting them pretty hard at that point. I've got enough room, you guys will see when you come up for birds this spring.

That's a great buck Rob. I guess I'll have to agree with the others on the score since I really couldn't venture a great guess from what I saw, but he is a dandy that's for sure.

Do you have a tripod for your GL2 yet?

Here's a picture of my buddy Russ' 2007 8pt. I think he's got similar mass and tine length to Rob's deer but this one only has about a 15" inside spread?

It was officially P&Y scored at 128 5/8" gross, 125 3/8" net.

Add in another 5" for width and I think it's easy to see that Rob's could do 132-135"?

No?




Great buck and shot. Matt/Pa do you remember what kind of broadhead he was shooting. Just curious.

You mean the one I'll be BACK in???

That's right. Halloween in PA as a tradition!
Sounds great Jeff, Matt (PA) you in?

Matt (RJ), looks like it could be midwest doesn't it...LOL

Shultzy, seems to be a concensus so far plus or minus 130". ?
I'm sticking to my guns. The last bit of footage you got of him sells me that he's mid 130's. Them G2's and G3's are nice. Good luck with him this year Rob.
