Im going to head out there on firday and enter my deer just for fun. Its going to look small next to all the giants that are going to be there but im looking forward to gettin him offically scored and showing him off a little bit lol.

I'll be showing up on Sunday with my buck. He goes 192 gross non and 171 6/8 net typical. How are they entered score wise? Gross or net?

RE: Illinois Expo
 

Im not sure, but that is an impressive buck, can't wait to see it there. I might enter mine, its not that high scoring net, but not bad gross. either way, it won't look bad in the displays. Hope to see some of you there...

RE: Illinois Expo
 

Mines not the biggest and will probably look relly small compared to both of yours and all the other Illinois giants that are going to be there but its a trophy to my so o well.

I attended on Sunday and actually walked away with a trophy...WooHoo.....My buck came in Second Place in the 13+ typical catagory only being beaten out by a few inches.

I'd like to say congrats to all the winners there. I think they mentioned about 589 entrys in the contest. All truly outstanding bucks.:)

I attended Sat and Sun and enjoyed it for the most part. at times the crowd was overwhelming. Need a larger display area for deer. My buck took first place for non typ. at 251 6/8. so i was quite pleased with that.
