Big 8’s

IMG_0469.jpeg

This guy was a big 9 pt with beautiful drop first time we noticed him. Then he became a clean 10 no drop. Then back to 9 pt. Here he is quite old as a 170" 8 pt.
 
The buck I am the most proud of to date was a very mature 8-pointer. The year prior his G-2s were both split with some kickers. The year I killed him he was went back to a heavier-massed straight 8 pointer.

Yep. Occasionally.

Better get out there with a crossgun before he's locked down with the ladies with the later gun season start this year!

Yep. Just flew back from OZ today and may spend the right evening looking for him I have not shot my crossbow all year. Better do that first.

Had to patch holes in a box blind today. Not exactly a great activity for 11/4, but it is what it is. Checked a cam that's been missed for a while. Our unconventional 8 made one appearance. He's my one and only target.

When you get him and put a tape on him, let me know how close he is to 158.

Well.....just as I figured.....the neighbors killed this big 8 yesterday. He was about 100 yards east of my property. So much for the let 'em grow theory.
The hard part is......those neighbors don't DO anything all year long. They just show up on opening weekend and kill deer. They commented to me how much bigger the racks are getting these years compared to time gone by. Well.....DUH! Couple Fudd's. @#$%^&*()_)(*&^%$#@. (grin) That is the real world folks.

I have an outfitter next to me…that’s literally every dumbass who sits in one of their blinds 75 yards from a corn mound
