My real buck pic!
 

Here is the real pic of the buck I got this year, a small racked 7 point with a large body, he dressed at about 160. My twins are the ones holding him because the pics they took of me with the buck were partially blocked by an unknown young ladies pink coat sleeve!

RE: My real buck pic!
 

Yea the kids were really pumped, it is the biggest one I have killed that they can remember, if I get that big 6 pointer they will see what a real big deer looks like. May you and yours have a merry and safe Christmas also.

you mounting this deer

RE: My real buck pic!
 

Thats the real one.........LOL[:o]:D

JK - congrats Taz - I see some nice mass - do you know the age??

Good job:D

RE: My real buck pic!
 

trophyhuntr he has a very long way to go before he could get mounted, until I at least match one I killed in 74 or 75 I will not be doing anymore mounting unless I get a nice buck with my bow.

Rack he was pretty old, on the downhill side, he had a lot of grey and his back was swayed, he probably would have had a lot nicer rack 2-3 years ago. He makes some pretty good jerky and an excellent meat loaf last night. I haven't had any backstrap or loins yet, saving the best for last or until I pop another one this year, I have until Jan. 3, its buck or doe and I am looking to fill the freezer this year. (I hope);)

Tazman,

It's always a shame when the bucks are out of their prime, isn't it. I would still have to say that it's a respectable buck with a lot of meat. Isn't that what it's all about anyway? I'm glad to see just how happy your daughters are about this deer. It shows just how much excitement that they can bring to this sport. Congratulations on a nice deer.

Merry Christmas to you and yours.

NEB I hate to see them beyond their prime, but as you said, lots of meat and the kids were psyched, next year will be their first season with a gun in their hands, I am sure I will be more excited about anything they kill then any deer I have ever killed.

Taz,

I think that they will do great. It sounds like you are truly a skilled hunter. I am sure that some of this may have passed down to your daughters. How long have they been going out with you? Wish them good luck from all of us here on the board for next year.

congrats Taz. Nice looking buck!! The twins do look to be in thier glory too. Was that pic taken during a huricane or something?? Looks like your girl on the right is bracing about ready to fall over and her hair is flying east to west.
