RE: Drop tine killed 07.12.2008.
Sorry about not including any text in the above thread. I'm just trying this for the first time after reading MGH PA tutorial on how to post a picture. I have never done this before, fortunately in the past my fellow hunting net members handled it for me.
That was a buck I shot in Ontario on a bitterly cold afternoon with loads of snow on the ground last December. He was actually a double drop tine, unfortunately his right side drop was broken off before I shot him. He does howeverhave a knob where that tine broke off from.
I was lucky I found him in one piece the following morning. I could not move him alone the afternoon before as my sled was in the city and the snow was much to deep to walk and drag him behind. He was a heavy deer that weighed 182 pounds when I took him to the butcher. This is without his head and rack, cape, legs and entrails. Was also an old man.
My first drop tine I've shotsince I started hunting in 1968.
Sure took a long, long time! Ha!
