Title: Goo hunt yesterday evening 1-3-2013
Post by: H.Wilson on January 04, 2013, 06:53:37 pm
Well my grandparents haven't killed a deer all year an that is very unusual for them well I'm not gonna let them go with out so I eased up to the national Forrest yesterday evening around 3:00 I got out of my truck at 3:25 and was dragging both of these bucks out at 3:36 I walked in to the woods about a hundred yards and the smaller one with the broke off horn was standing broadside at about 85 yards I saw that he was missing the horn so I smoked him and the bigger buck came running over the hill at me I stopped  him in a fire lane at about 50 yards and popped him as well let's just the grandparents are happy and I'm tagged out now there was 3 bucks all running together the third was a little smaller than the 8 point probably just shy of legal

The 8 point was 13 1/2 inches wide which just made legal

We have a law in our county and all or surrounding counties that I know of where we can kill two bucks one cull a spike or a deer with one unbranched antler or our trophy deer I guess they call it that can be 13 inches wide or bigger

The antler that was broken off has to be at least an 1" long to count as an antler and it doesn't look it. I zoomed in on the picture and it looks completely gone. The one antler that is there is obviously not "unbranched" either.
