Monster IL Bowkill
 

No not mine,:D but I thought you all might like to see him.

Another big IL whitetail fell to a lucky archer this fall. This time a DNR agent named Mike Goetten killed a monster near Joliet. The massive buck is a basic 10 pointer with a double brow tine and a few stickers that gross scores 198 3/8” and nets 175 6/8 as a Typical Booner. (Green scores)

Bob Schnettgoecke who owns Schnettgoecke’s Taxidermy from Grafton, IL is mounting the buck for Mike. Here are a few pics of the beast the day the buck was mounted. The mount isn’t finished yet, but I couldn’t resist posting a few pics of this beautiful buck.




The buck is almost the size of this cow elk.






The cape on this buck beautiful as well.





Here you can get an idea of his mass, 7" bases
