Sorry the pic is not the greatest, I was 19 years old and first year bow hunting, I the shot the buck with bow second weekend of gun season thats why I was dressed in orange. Lots of scouting and of course lots of luck.
Scored 171 6/8, shot in 1993

That's a heck of a nice buck. Too bad you don't have any more pics to post so we could get a better look. Congrats.

I do have lots of pic and very close up one but do not have a scanner, I had a friend scan this only pic for me. Thanks.

Awesome buck! Congrats on the first bowkill.

Those are some long tines. Very nice buck. Easily in the 150's. Maybe higher. Well done.

Nice buck.

The buck scored 171 6/8, It is in the pope and young book, was shot in 1993

That is a nice looking buck. Don't call it a once in a life time though. Go out and find another one. I'm still waiting to get mine but a friend of mine has ten that size on his walls. We hunt resisdential and I do see them that size every year.

Wow, what a dandy. That will be a tough animal to top but I wouldn't worry about that. Congrats!

I hope to always get a chance at another one like this one, oh I will shoot another trophy, again some time in the future.
