Without a doubt the first is a personal trophy, but actually it's much more. It's a testimony to personal will and achievement and to perseverance.

The second may be a trophy animal but the hunter you describe fits the description of slob. If he’s shooting out of his truck I hope he gets bagged for it.

Just my $0.02

I'm not sure I understand the point of these continued comparisons. Yea one is a personal achievement against the odds, the other is a shady deal that winds up in killing a big buck.

Yea Me to. Not really understaning all these comaparisons? (IMO) The first one is a personal success story of achievment even after the accindent he still wanted to succeed on killing a deer and did.
The second one? Yes the animal was a trophy but the way the old greedy farmer did it cast a shamfull shadow on the whole deal (IMO)...rta47

Well if this storie were real then, one is a true hunter and the other is a poacher who should spend some time in jail for breaking the law. Yes I agree with any animal being a TROPHY and say what makes a doe less inportant than a big buck. I also don't understand any comparison between a hunter and a poacher. Poachers are outlaws in my book!
