170 with a compound bow I don't use a gun or traditional equipment any more.
You can fool some of the bucks, all of the time, and fool all of the bucks, some of the time, however you certainly can't fool all of the bucks, all of the time.

170 with the bow. Still chasing that dream. After 170 with the bow, it will be 180 with the bow. The sureness of the rifle has never thrilled me much...still wouldnt mind a 200 with the rifle ;)

200 with the rifle...I have been trying to locate a 200" buck for 10 years or more and I have yet to see one.

I would actually be happy with a 140 up with a gun (rifle, muzzle loader, shotgun). I have shot some dandies with a bow, and I get on good deer almost every bow season. But I am snake bit during gun season, one of my goals for 2014 is a good buck with a gun. It seems like a backwards goal, but I've never been normal.

Any with a rifle or bow... I've never even seen a deer of those classes... My biggest was an old mature buck on the decline.... Scored low because of the messed up rack and broken tine

170" with bow then 150" with traditional. Gun kill wouldn't mean nearly as much as a bow kill to me.
