Yeah he is. But it’s a two man team deal so his partner will need to kill a good one too. And he will. 😀

193. This one fooled us all. All summer we were thinking 180ish. Wrong. The mass on this thing makes the tines look short.
Ive had six or seven sits so far. All good I’ve seen a pile of deer but nothing I want to shoot. The deer I’d really like to kill has finally shown up on one of our properties. He’s been there each of the last three evenings and mornings on opposite sides of the property. I hope to hunt him Monday. He’s not a high score deer but I’ve known him his entire life and he’s got my full interest as of now.

Who shot that beast?
I am a little confused but that is not unusual
My buddy Brian shot the first one. He has a business partner that he owns a piece of ground with. His partner shot the second one on the same piece of ground. It isn’t a big piece either. I think it’s 250-300 acres. Brian owns a lot of really good land. His expectations are substantially higher than the majority of us peasants. 😀. Great people with outstanding ground to hunt.

Mason and I have no exclusive properties to hunt aside from the ones we own, and they are pretty small. This is one of the bucks we were hoping to get a look at this year. Mason passed him a number of times last season. He died this morning. Ironically he is laying within feet of where I shot a nice deer two years ago. 😀. I think the boy that shot him had passed him last year too, so he earned him.
