Not as easy as it looks

 
Remember, they call me Big Jim because I am 6'3" tall and 325 lbs. This deer is bigger than he looks

Now I know that many guys don't care about score. I am not hung up on that either, but I do believe that an animal should be proud of what he has to offer. This gentleman green scores 140" and I couldn't be more proud if he was 150". 18.5" inside spread.
On top of that, he was kind enough to yield 92 lbs of meat to feed my family. yummie

Redshaft, your correct, I should have been wearing a safety vest. I must admit that although I wear a safety vest religiously when I'm hunting, I have been some what careless when hanging stands. I will try to do better for my family.
Bryan, you ain't kidding. that dog was just begging for it.
Altiman, Kansas rules.... well, so does several other places, but right now Kansas is my favorite  :)

I will try to post a link to the video of my buck action.
Also many other exciting things to add to this adventure.
thanks,bigjim

Great job. Any deer that looks bigger than a squirrel next to you must be huge.

What a year Jim!  I've got a Kansas tag but have to wait until the end of December before we'll get a chance to use it.  You're not making the wait any easier!

RedShaft, they look like honey-locust pods to me.  See the big thorns on the tree....buck magnets, an old deer hunter told me.

Jim, Congrats...you're blessed with a nice deer and a great wife.
