I stumbled across this site after looking at some of the pics of big bucks. I am 20 years ol and have been going deer hunting with my dad since I was about 13. I didn't shoot anything until I was seventeen and it was just a 4 pointer but I watched my dad kill some nice deer and now he got to watch me this year. Opening weekend of rifle season I dropped a yearling doe on accident because there was this nice buck working a big doe all over the hillside I was on but I couldn't get a shot at the buck and the little doe walked up the hill right to me and I dropped it at about 35 yards broadside thinking it was the larger doe. Well the next weeken I was feeling Kindof bad for killing that golden retriever and I sat on the ground in this really thick area where there was a definite rubline. I didn't see anything until 10:30 when the buck came through and I dropped him. My dad was a couple trees away from me and was dosing off so he didn't see the deer when I shot and when I did shoot he jumped up and said"what the hell was that?, that better me a monster" and I replied "just wait til we get up on this one". I was obviously not going to shoot anything othewr than a big buck after getting the meat from that doe the weekend before. I just got it back from the taxidermist and it looks really good hangin on the wall next to my dad's 130" 10 pt. My buck scored 137 and some change which is pretty big for where I hunt so I'm still really proud of it. He was a tall mainframe 8 missing one brow tine and the other one was 6" so thats a shame...the G2s split but the one sides kicker is broken off and he has one more sticker at the base. I'll call it a 10 pt.
