my 2011 buck

Unread postby hammered 16 » Wed Jan 11, 2012 4:04 pm

i hunt in baltimore county maryland on private property and i didnt really get a chance to hunt during bow season due to work but i did go out in black powder and i got three deer with black powder. a couple weeks go by and didnt get to go out hardly at all. and so the day before thanks giving we found out that we would no longer be able to hunt a farm my dad hunted for 22 years after the fist day of gun season. so we were all mad and upset when saturday came we were determined to come home with some deer.

i was sitting in the morning and didnt see anything. the afternoon comes and i was sitting on the edge of a field along a hedro close to the corner of the field i was sitting there and i looked up on the hill and i saw this buck at the top making a scrape. and the i thought he left and a couple minutes went by and three does came out behind me and i shot this one. and i geuse the buck thought i was on the other side of the hedro and he came around and came into the the corner of the field at like 30 yards and stopped so i shot and he dropped. so me and my bro go get the doe and drag it and the buck out in the field and field dressed them and drug them a little bit closer to the truck.

and then walk back to the truck and wait for my dad and our friend and it was dark by now and our friend drove the truck over to pick them up and he didnt turn the lights on. and he ran the horns over i was so upset my bro was digging the out of the mud our friend stood there in disbelief he kept saying im sorry. we got the out of the mud and the left side was broken inside the skull but my dad said the taxidermy can fix it. so i had a unusual day that day between the four of us we shot six deer. i know this aint a huge buck but for the last day on the farm ill take him his left g2 was broken off when i shot i do have a qeustion would you get the g2 fixed or leave like it is my dad seems to think i should get it fixed but i cant decide what to do.

Congrats kid. If your dad is paying for the mount and fix job then go for it! Problem is cheap fix jobs on antlers look like crap.

Very nice job son! Great buck and great story. I have had one of my mounts repaired and if its done right it is hard to tell the difference. Either way it will look great on the wall. The first of many to come for you im sure. Congrats again.

Nice buck, congrats. I would probably have it fixed, had the buck busted it off fighting or soemthing I would chalk it up to good ol "character".

Good job on the nice buck. Welcome to the Beast
