"snow "sounds "EZ"but if its powdery or coming down fast a trail can go "cold" real fast!!

These pics are great!
It's cool to see the different 8's from around the country.

It doesn't look like it in the pic but this is an 8 I got about 6 years ago. It was a good year...a bear, a spike, a 10 and this 8.

Kansas 8, 2 years ago. Kinda cool story with him, I had caught him on a trail cam trailing a doe and decided to hang a stand in the area. With the way the terrain lay and where the deer were traveling from, I could only hunt this atand with a North West wind. Should be no problem in Kansas, second week of November. Well a warm front blew in and we had monster winds from the South and South West for several days in a row. I was down to the last two days of my hunt when a Northern blew in, strong North wind next morning. Hunted till noon, no luck, went back to the truck for a quick bite of lunch. While sitting in my truck eating lunch I noticed the wind had changed to the North West.
Finally could hunt that stand. Got in the stand at 1:30 shot this Buck at 4:00, he was the 5th. Buck I saw that afternoon. Sometimes things just work out. RW

Wow...some GIANTS on here! Congrats to all!

Over the years I've certainly taken my share of 8's....or 4 by 4's like we call them out west.

Here's some pics.

A 6 1/2 year old I took last year. I wheezed him in for a 5 yard shot from a cedar tree. Mike
