Tippman Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 Sorry if this topic is somewhere else. Don't really have time to look now. Long story short, I had the crosshairs on this buck 4 different times with the safety off. Never was 100% sure of the shot though. He ended up running by my father and he got him! Nearly had him last week with the bow too! 215 lbs field dressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smg04 Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 i shot a buck this morning right at daylight, he came in chasing a hot doe, i hit him twice before he disapered into some thick brush, 15 min later as i climed down my stand and started walking his way another much larger buck came in grunting and snorting, he was fired up and looking for a fight, at first i thought it was the buck i shot and he had doubled back on me, i poped a quick shot at him but luckly missed, as he ran out the other side of the valley i heard some rustling in the bushes and sure enough there was my buck laying in the thickest nastyst cocklebur/rasberry bush in the woods, he's a leagle 9pt, with 7 main points and 2 small sticker points near the base of one antler, cooked up the tenderloins for supper this afternoon, and man its nice to taste fresh vinison again, this is the 2nd largest buck of my life behind an 11pt i shot a few years back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shack Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 Hey Tippman, nice gun set up. It is close to what I use.Where about in the state did you shoot the deer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tippman Posted November 5, 2007 Author Share Posted November 5, 2007 Actually that's my dad's gun, a 870 wingmaster with redfield I believe. He shot the deer as I said, the pics of him just didn't turn out well with the color for some reason. He was shot near St. Cloud. I have the bar raised pretty high for me now.

Meat-Run Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 Hey Tippman, I'm kind of disappointed in that deer, it's not white!? j/k Oh, because your father harvested it it's a normal deer thats why. Hey Congrats and beautiful buck. Just giving you a hard time. I was lucky enough to take a yearling doe. mr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaz2611 Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 whats the circumferance at the base did you by chance shoot this buck near the minnesota river? A couple of people in my party saw a buck on saturday that they didnt have a clear shot at but they could see that it was a brute and sunday evening when registering my nephews doe the guy at the registration station says the neighbors across the river got a brute that field dressed weighed 215. Either way that is a dandy buck congrats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CodyDawg Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 Here is the 10 pointer I shot on Sunday after a 30 minute cat and mouse game. This is the most fun I have ever had shooting a deer. A half hour of pure excitement. He weighed 200# on a Cabelas scale after field dressing and scored 139 points. He would stick his nose in the shooting lane and stop. Finally he crossed one.

Tippman Posted November 8, 2007 Author Share Posted November 8, 2007 Great looking deer guys. It's always nice to take a personal best. I passed on a mid sized 8 tonight still looking for the big boy near Mcgregor. It's not as easy checking this site from the cell phone as the home computer though.

Nope, he is Houston County born and raised. The coolest part is that he showed up on trail camera for the first time the weekend before the season.
