Wow I hadn't checked this thread since firearms started. A lot of great deer taken.

Sunday went out in the morning with a buddy n he had a buck tag n in the afternoon he said if you see anything I need meat...well after sitting in the truck listening to the vikes I got into my stand at 2:30 n wasn't thinking I would see anything started playing on my phone when this guy walked behind me!!! I am not much for cross tagging bucks but once this presented me with a shot I thought it would make it a season I will never duplicate!!!

Taken in Watonwan county with a S&W .500 handgun. Note the double brow tines.

Took this buck last Thursday morning. I went back to our hunting shack to get my 2 year old son in on the experience. A very memorable morning.

What makes your dad's rack stand out and score high is the spread along with the mass. The bruiser a couple of posts down from yours is a 150 class because the main beams curl around and come back to each other. Your dad's come staright out. That will add another 10" to the score over the other buck. Also yours looks pretty good from side to side. I would guess you have less than 10" of deductions.

He's not as big as some on here but I have to give respect to this guy I took on friday afternoon. I thought he was an older deer when I shot. Still a respectable buck I just wish I had let him go for another year or two.

There ya, go MA. Your report the last I heard didn't sound like you guys were seening much! WTG!.

Our group is 6 for 10 with one weekend to go. I've seen 13 deer but none with a rack yet or that I could see. May have to pop a Doe next weekend for some meat!

Shot this 9 pointer last Wednesday night. My wife took some great pics, but I'm not allowed to touch that camera & she still hasn't emailed me them. Took this one with my camera when I was putting him back in my truck. He was too heavy to load by myself, so I cheated a little. I thought he looked pretty cool in there.

My brother took this pic with his phone under the parking lot lights at work where we'd left his truck. I shot him right before dark. By the time we got to him it was too dark for cell phone pics.

STUD!! Love it! Way to go bigbucks!!! Hes a beauty!

[TonkaBass]

Nice buck man!

[leech~~]

Hey bigbucks! Stop trying to make everyone feel bad that they didn't need a Front end loader to carry they deer out! Nice wide rack!

[bigbucks]

Thanks, but we didn't have that where I shot him. We had to drag him about 1/4 of a mile. Surprisingly he was kind of thin, he only weighed 175 lbs.

[nonteepical]

hope you didn't scratch that darn rack up with the loader! how were people doing hunting around long prairie?

[00rowe]

Nonteepical,

I know of a huge non typical that was shot 2 miles from my house, there was some "controversy" over it because it was shot by a 2 different parties. The river bottom was full of deer, just nothing big enough to have you score, maybe muzzy season will get a big boy hanging out in the back yard.

Hey there leech, It was TOUGH season for our party of 3. My wife seen deer on every sit, she passed on a spike opening evening cause she wasnt going to fill her very first tag on anything but a forked horn LOL. I seen nuthin the whole day. I got this one at 3 pm last friday out roaming around looking for does. In all I seen 6 deer over the season where as I was seeing many just a week before.

Good luck up there and we look forward to the reports

Nice Buck there bigbucks. Love those wide sweeping horns

C'mon Musky Buck, let's see your pic. After all the doubt and negative vibe we were hearing about your area what with poaching, trespassers, etc I'd like to see what you finally crossed paths with.

After all the finger pointing and negative posts I would like to see what makes him happy too.

You did the same last year Musky Buck said you got one and never posted pics.

So lets see what you got.

Congrats BigBucks! That's a beautiful deer. Not surprising he was a little light. Looks like he was rutting pretty hard. Got yerself a freezer full of goodies!

Lotsa nice deer showing up. Congrats to all!

[Bear55]

No pictures loaded yet, but watched 3 bucks chasing a doe thursday night and managed to plug the largest of the 3, haven't heard that much grunting in my life after many many deerless sits, that doe had a serious look of concern on her face. No wonder she was up and moving through the tamarac swamp.

Pics or it didn't happen!

[mustangt69]

heres my 1st 10pt. also shot a 7pt and a spike. the "booners" or monsters dont show face around me often....One of these years ill pass on the small ones for something big.....i like knowing the freezer is full too!!!

[Musky Buck]

Will do, I'll send it to Frosty and hope he'll help me out.

[Musky Buck]

Picture sent to Frosty, he's a decent 8 pointer. I also have to add being a somewhat newly married guy and having a daughter who had a long stay in a NICU, putting that meat in the freezer is becoming more important. Great deer guys, the only bad news is I can't rifle zone 1 or muzzleload now, but I pulled the trigger and have to happy with what I got. And I am.
