My season is almost done. I have a buck tag in Oklahoma and 1 on the Sioux Rez in Nebraska left to fill. I started in Oklahoma with no shooters showing up. So I left for Nebraska on November 1 for my annual archery hunt in NE Nebraska. Three days into it I arrowed the buck below at 36 yds. He grossed 142" I came back to Oklahoma to find the rut in full swing. I arrowed this buck on the 20th. He grossed 144" I headed for Kansas and killed this buck the first afternoon. I havent scored him yet but he's in the 130's. Not quite what I went to Kansas to kill but the circumstances dictated that he was the one. I had 2 doe tags to fill and finished up the first evening. My rifle on the KS deer was my trusty Kimber Montana shooting 180 gr Hornady's BTSP. Ranges were 324, 184, and 201 respectively. All pass through's and the 2 does were DRT. Its been fun as always. With 2 tags to go before its finished. Joseph

Thanks guys. Im cheezin on the inside. Im pretty much numb from lack of sleep.
If I score in December its gonna be something to remember. Im holding out for a 160" or better. I know where one may be hanging out if he isn't all broken up by now. Ive had 2 chances to kill him the last 3 years, but he has always had 2 or more tines busted. I never see him until December. He likes this one area a lot in the late season. I assume it has what he needs to recover from a brutal rut. He has decent mass, but super long tines.
