Man, I love that Zipper, TJ. Mines in the works, as your earlier thread inspired me.
You sure know how to make it happen. What a day is right. Congratulations.

Definately a most memorable day.

Are you sure that your harvest hadn't dropped its rack early or are you just possibly not telling us?


Thanks much for sharing your eventful day.

Congratulations T.J,

  That doe should be entered in the "Z" givaway for the biggest doe contest where you can win some arrows and looks like you'll be needing more arrows by the way you're knocking em down !  Are you going to set up some trail cams to keep an eye on that buck for next season? He looks to be a nice 10 point or even may have another we can't see but very nice buck and pic...Keep us posted when you look for those sheds this spring...  :thumbsup:

All I can say is, WOW! That is one monster doe right there. Congrats my friend.

Now, about that buck. I'm no expert when it comes to scoring racks and I know you are a very good field judge on the subject, but I think you are being very conservative on your estimation of that buck's rack! He looks like he'll go 160 or maybe even more to me. He's got it all: long tines, long beams, good spread, good mass, symmetry, you name it, he's got it. He sure looks like the buck of a lifetime to me. I sure hope you get him next year.

Are you sure you didn't shoot that buck and just cut its antlers off?  That is one massive doe- what a trophy.  Congrats and great shot.
To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first and call whatever you hit the target

Well played Tom!   Things just couldn't have gone any better for you.  Dont you just love it when a plan comes together . Congrats on fine doe.

I just can't see how that was better than shopping.    :rolleyes:
