Here is my buck.
Most have prob. seen him in the BH forum where I had him posted.
I shot him on 11/9/02 while he was trolling for does through a funnel between 2 large set of timber. The funnel was a wedge formation on end of 1 timber that had a brushy fenceline that went 50yrd to the other timber. He was the 7th buck through the funnel that morning.
I had a 145 10pt get past me just out of range and I tryed to bleat and grunt him in. I hit my rattling horns and he took off like I had reached out with the horns and whacked him on the butt.
About 10 min. later. This buck broke a twig about 40 yrds down the funnel and he came right by at 20 yrds. He went around 100yrds after a muzzy 100 took his breath.
will try to post a pic.

Here is my IL shotgun kill. I killed the buck on last Saturday afternoon after watching him for about 10 minutes rubbing small sapplings until they broke. I had decided not to shoot him and had already let one just like him go by at 25yds before I could even get up in the tree. I could have shot him at any time while he was rubbing but chose to hold off, then at the last minute as he started to leave I gave in and shot him at about 50yds. He has a meager gross score of 108 1/8 and nets 105 2/8. He field dressed in the neighborhood of 160 lbs. I don't know if he will help IL, but maybe I can hold myself back the rest of the bow season and kill a really big buck.
