Tues, December 15th...

A late bow season 2.5yr. old buck.

Big body, big head, and had a broken and healed front leg that I believe kept his rack from being more.

Thankful to have him!

It's been a tough season of highs and lows, battling warm weather, more changing winds than I've ever experienced, and very spooky deer!

The hunt was fully captured on film..."sometimes it's not about how big"

Congrats!!! Very cool!
 I love hunting animals that have something unique about them. I once had a spike come in at 10 yrds that had a spike on one side and it looked like a sweet gum ball on the other side. About the size of a golf ball with little stickers everywhere. Wanted him BAD but never got a shot and never saw him again.
Congratulations again!

Good deal, Curt, congratulations!  Doesn't look like the leg hurt his body size any.

Congrats Curt! Nice buck!

I hear ya, tough year of highs and lows for me too. Let a lot of small bucks and does pass early season and now they have become scarce and the ones I do see keep busting me.
