New Years surprise☹
« on: January 01, 2021, 08:18:52 PM »
My wife stumbled on the carcass of a great  young buck that had the potential to be a monster.  It looks to have been shot by the neighbors during rifle season and not recovered.   Coyotes ate well,  but would rather a person did.

Man oh man. 
I can afford to shoot most any bow I like.  And I like Primal Tech bows.

Really nice buck,shame you couldn't have gotten a shot on him.

Must have been a really poor shot with the rifle!

Beautiful buck! Shame how the story ended but I'd still display it proudly somehow.
Most people get rich by making more money than they have needs, me, I just reduced my needs!
