Scott, I'm late into this thread, but I have to say that your dad has a bunch more will power than I'd have for passing up that same buck last year. You have a real honey hole there in Kansas. That guy will make an outstanding mount if you have a high enough ceiling. I expect that you, like Roundoak are getting kind of short on available trophy room wall space.

Awesome!
....if you'd have gone with better camo you could have got him at 4 yards. *grins* I just can't bring myself to don a detailed ensemble in the latest fashion. The non-camo-hobo-look will have to suffice.  I can't say anything. I took one this past weekend wearing sweats pants, fleece jacket, and adidas clogs. I did have Lorpen hiking sock on though.

Good story and sorry to hear Dad didn't get a tag. Met him at Bobski's. We killed a few blue rocks there though. Had fun there too. Be Well Guys, RZ.

Great job again Scott. Another dandy! Thanks for the great story and pics.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.
