I hunt public land in central NJ, the most densely populated corridor of the most densely populated state in the nation. Many bucks are killed by cars before they reach two years old and many others are killed as soon as they sprout an antler. I am not saying there are not loads of great bucks in NJ, I'm saying I don't have access to them.  In 30 years of bowhunting I have only seen 2 deer with more than 8 pts and I have only taken 2 - 8 pointers.  I got plenty of mileage out of this one though.  I self filmed the hunt and the footage has been on a couple of TV shows, including a Cabela's show where it aired twice in one season because it made the cut for top ten at the end of the year. I also wrote a story about it for TBM.

Killed this guy this year with a 20 yard shot, he was not the biggest on the hit list but I was more than tickle pink with him...

An arrow can only be shot by pulling it backward.So when life is dragging you back with difficulties, it means that it's going to launch you into something great.

My last buck in Iowa 2008. Ran straight under me chasing a doe. It was a raging blizzard when I shot him. A difficult trail as it was snowing so hard after the shot.

Dang y'all northern guys have some brute deer. I outweigh most mature bucks in my area (on the hove), and I only weigh 160lb!

Littlebigman, that hanging pic is impressive!

Littlebigman, I am all about the deer you guys hunt. Man I wish the body size around here was up to that standard.

You been getting it done, keep it up I want to see more of your post of those big boys for the next 20 to 30 years.
