Thanks for the details. Couldn't be happier for you. That is just an awesome buck.

Did you weigh him?

Great story and well worth the "wait'! Congratulations, friend. How I would love to get one big 'un before it is time for my last hunt - but I will thank the Lord for any that I manage to get with my trad bow, and take solace in stories like yours.

Thanks guys,I'm still amazed myself.

 Don, just got back from dads where he is hanging.We finally figured out a way to get him high enough to weigh(never had that problem before).Got him up with my chain hoist I use for skinning at my shop,he is my heaviest deer .... 182lbs.on the nose!!!

  Also threw a tape on him real quick,these are not exact.When I get him into my shop I will get a more accurate score.

IN.SP.-  18 1/2"

G-1   3"
G-2   8"
G-3   6"

Circ. measurements are between 5-3"

Beams  24"

Looks like he'll gross right around 130"

 His cape is absolutly flawless,and beautiful.That's important when your a taxidermist.When I get him mounted I'll have to post some pics.

 Mom cooked up some tenderloins and I'm about to sit down with them and some Italian bread..........

When you have only 8 points to get 130 it makes for a huge looking deer. I have a friend that shot a perfect 8 in Saskatchewan that grosses 160 it is monsterous.

By the way if you are going to keep shooting deer like that you may want to start bringing me along to help with the dragging.   :D

Ain't that just like greatness...says he could have made a better shot. "So Peyton, how's it feel to throw 4 touchdowns for over 400 yards this game? Well, honestly, I could have had 5 or 6 but just came up short...I'm gonna work harder next time."  :bigsmyl:  

Big deer is hangin on the pole brudda, that's the best shot there is. Great story.

Hook, A 160" 8pt is absolutely HUGE!!!!

  The tenderloins were scrumtious  :bigsmyl: .Mom's got some real talent in the kitchen.

Isn't it amazing what a diff. a yr can make.Last yr. nothing really went right and then came to a grinding halt when that bullet went though my leg.

This year has been so special....

Nice story Curt. Cannot wait to see the job you do on this one. Guess the man upstairs had a few rewards planned for you after last seasons accident. Meathook wants to be your drag man now...he ain't been doing too bad for himself. Will watch for pics. I'll bet Shawn is just droolin but happy for you none the less............Mac~
