JG how long would you size up that buck in Tanner's first photo,in the snow field,before you dropped him? It would take me all of 3-4 seconds to size that dude up with my bins before grabbing the rifle. How do you miss a buck like that the size of a 55 gallon drum? I'm sure you and I see eye to eye on this one...! Actually I seldom score a buck before I shoot.

JG, if we were hunting together and it took you 3-4 seconds, you'd be picking my brass off the ground.

Alright SKane, don't dare make fun of my whiteys......In reality I'm a dumbass when it comes to whitetail hunting. I've managed to kill a few in the upper 150's, but I managed to pass up this buck at 150 yds 'cause I though he was in the high 140's. My buddy whacked him 5 minutes later and he was bumping 163"..... [img:left] [/img] Then a couple of days later this buck lays down with a doe about 170 yes from my perch in the rocks, in plain sight, for 15 minutes. I made the call again that he was in the high '40's and passed. My other coonass buddy shot him the next day....but he had grown to 166" by then........ [img:left] [/img]

I shot a 31 inch 4x4 that same morning that looks like a dink compared to this one.

225 pounds field dressed, one year earlier in the same spot. 206 pounds, one year after the first post, in the same spot. Longbow on this one too. Not a bad 3 year string.

Tanner that's another great one! I remember when you posted him.
Rick must have been tough to let that buck walk. Sonora?

Schrapnel that is a big 3x3 for the young guy! What a start! You are a good mentor for bringing him out. Did you guys kill him on the way to the range? That was one of my best...
