Default get a load of this

Im taking my cousin to a location where i had an encounter with a big 12 i get him set up in his location and i start walking to where i planned to hunt well i get 40 yards and i see a giant pair of antlers sticking out of the 3 foot high weeds my heart is about to explode i draw back and decide not to take the shot couldnt see his body so i sit down and think of a plan well as luck would have hit my cousin was over they breaking branches buck got up and bolted he was atleast 16 points with a 2 foot high rack and in severe pain from what im guessing was a leg injury or someone shot him in the shoulder,i had no idea something of this caliber was in this timber I have hunted a lot of days seen some nice bucks but this one was the king of the forest

That would be nice for a couple reasons. For someone to legally take him and to put him down

And they always seem to get away. I'm of the belief that we have our resident BS'r. I'm just not buying anymore of the stories.

Agreed. I'm all for stories of 17 pointers, racks 3 feet wide by 7 feet tall, and backs that can chase off bull moose; but I'm just ready to see some pictures.
