A Shed and a Deer
« on: January 07, 2016, 11:12:00 AM »
I posted a story back in November about a buck I shot.

  http://tradgang.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=1;t=147673  

Well the story got a little more interesting a few days ago.  My wife was putting Christmas decorations away when she pulled out a box that included some items that she was putting back in place.  One of the items was a shed antler I had found last year.  We have quite a few sheds around the house for decoration but this one just took on new meaning.  Neither one of us had realized or put it together that the shed I had found last year was from the buck I took in November!  Here is a picture for you folks to compare.  It provides us with a good idea of how much these guys can grow in a year.

Not that it matters, since bucks do tend to travel a bit.  I shot the buck only 200 yards from where I found the shed.

Love that when it happens!

In 01' both my brothers (13 and 17) shot their first deer with a bow and both were 2 1/2 8s.....

My middle brothers was busted right after his G2 on his left side and my youngest brother while shed hunting that spring found the rest of his main beam   :scared:   3/4 of a mile away from where it was shot........

He walked into the house and asked in a very loud voice " Hay Caleb, how much would you pay to have the rest of your bucks rack!?!?!?!?"   :thumbsup:

Very cool Tim!  You did however shoot that beauty in December.  You used to be "Mr. October" but this year you decided to make it interesting.....
