buddy' s big 8 point
 

Here is the pic of a big 8 point a buddy shot last week. He hit it far back and spent 6 hours and 1 1/2 miles on the track until the deer was recovered.

Can you say MASS!!!!!!!

RE: buddy' s big 8 point
 

Man that is one beautiful rack, even the color is neat. Tell your friend congrats on the deer and my hat is off to him for trailing him to the end.

RE: buddy' s big 8 point
 

That is a whopper!!!

RE: buddy' s big 8 point
 

Tell your buddy congrats!! Also it sounds like he did a great job of being persistant and not giving up on finding that deer. Great Job and a great buck!!

RE: buddy' s big 8 point
 

That' s sweet. Are the leaves in the second picture covering up the entrace wound? What did he weigh?

RE: buddy' s big 8 point
 

Charlie, I am not sure if that is the entrance or exit hiding behind the leaf, but you are correct, that is where the arrow went. The deer was hit through the intestines on a broadside shot. They did not weigh the buck, just took it directly to be processed.

How many P&Y points? It looks like it will definitely make the 140 cut off.

Barnes,A typical only has to be 125 to make P&Y. No problem with that brute.

Thundergut, You guys did a great job finding him.

RE: buddy' s big 8 point
 

Unreal. So deer THAT big actually exist out there eh? Only in my dreams here I guess.

Nice deer. Congrats to your friend for a great kill and obviously a great tracking job!

RE: buddy' s big 8 point
 

Great Buck! I admire the persistance and effort put forth to recover that deer. Was there much of a trail to follow, or is your buddy just that good?:)

RE: buddy' s big 8 point
 

Thanks for the Kudos Charlie, but I was not on the track of this one. Another friend of ours was with him. The other friend happens to be a phenominal tracker. This deer actually took to walking down a stream bed, in the water, for 1/4 of a mile, and my buddy never lost it. He is the one I call whenever I get " stumped" on a blood trail. But top answer your question Jason N, there was pretty decent blood at times and very little at others. All in all, though, the deer never stopped bleeding.

RE: buddy' s big 8 point
 

Wow! That is a brute of a deer. Congrats to your buddy. :)
