Another local IL buck
 
This buck was shot by the son of a guy my dad moose hunts with here in the NW burbs of Chicago last week. He was chasing some does and grunting up a storm when he came it. I wish when I was 16 I had shot a buck like this. From the ground no less!

A 16 year old and with a bow no less. Great looking goofy racked buck. Congrats to him!

Wow, big racked deer behind every tree and you can hunt moose in the 'burbs there too! [8D]

Seriously, that's a nice buck. I wish we had bucks like that in abundance (maybe a little more even though). He's a big 'un!

The one measurement P&Y doesn't take that this buck has plenty of is the neck!!! Is he thick or what!!!

Very nice, very nice indeed!

Sweet buck! That's not going to be a particularly easy buck for the kid to beat. With a rack like that on the wall it'll be tough to up the bar.

One heck of a buck, especially to be taken with a bow from the ground!!

Great buck! I always wonder why such a big deal is made from shooting a buck from the ground with a bow? I've killed more from on the ground than in the trees.

Awesome job young man.... what a great buck:D
When I first moved here from the Northern San Diego County California area I wasnt a Archer or bowhunter.... and I wondered what is there to do here besides Watch the Corn and Beans grow???? NowI know..... We like to watch the Big Illinois Bucks Grow;)

Great buck. Taking a buck like that with a bow from the ground at 16 years old will be hard to top. Congrats to him.
