I won!
« on: January 29, 2009, 09:41:00 PM »
I'm NOT a trophy hunter; but, for the fun of it, Dad and I have entered a Big Buck contest for the last few years.  Despite Dad and I being the only two trad shooters out of 32 bowhunters, I won this year!  I get the pot ($5.00 buy-in), the traveling plaque passed to each year's winner (names on the back), and bragg'n rights!  

The get together was this last Sunday when measurements were taken.  I came out ahead of another guy by 1/8".  Because it doesn't get any closer than that, the racks were measured by an official P&Y scorer-- 139 6/8".  

I'm one proud stick-shooter!
