Ethan said: “Mike, I know you like a good drop tine buck. I do as well, and I finally made my dream come true in central Virginia! Big Old Dominion dropper went 23” wide!” Yes, love me some drop tine, especially an old main-frame 6 with a big drop club like this! And sure love me a big old Virginia buck! Congrats man thanks for sharing.
Today’s great guest blog from Tony Woodruff: Mike: Just wanted to send a quick story about a hunt a few weekends ago. I took my 13 year old daughter bowhunting on the family farm up in north-central Nebraska. We couldn't get to the primary location that I wanted to hunt Saturday morning because of the wind, so we hunted a field edge and only saw some does and fawns. I slipped into a draw that afternoon where I hoped there would be evening activity, set up a pop-up blind and brushed it in. We went back to the blind with a little over 2 hours of daylight left. We were in the blind getting our chairs situated when I looked up and spotted a [...]
2018 will go down as a tremendous rack year, as some giants are being shot across North America. Will it also be the year the record is broken for the highest-scoring whitetail buck ever killed with a bow? This picture has been all over social media. Here’s a report from a source I trust: This buck was killed in Edgar County, Illinois between Paris and Chrisman by a disabled Veteran Luke Brewster of Virginia. His close friend was hunting the buck and he came down and got a shot on him his first day on the hunt. The deer was 100% free range and legal after being investigated by the IDNR. It has 39 countable points and green scored 311” [...]
Today's guest blog from Brian out in Southeast Oklahoma: This buck first showed up on my game cameras October 21st. Didn’t know him and had never seen him before. Then he was on camera again the morning of October 29 at 6:00 a.m. I hunted that evening and saw some younger bucks and does but no mature bucks. One young buck was pushing does around and grunting and roaring, so I knew they were rutting in the area. When I slipped out I left most of my equipment in the tree so I could slip in as quietly as possible the next morning. The wind was iffy the morning of October 30th. It was warm but I had that feeling [...]
This is one of the coolest Tweets I've read in a while. Jerry @ BG_Two tweeted: My dad will be 70 next year and he got his first bow buck last night! He was shaking like a little kid when I got to him. I wouldn't trade that moment for anything. He had a goal to get one before moving on to a crossbow and we did it together. I am still pumped! This is just tremendous and makes me happy, way to go guys.
