I had dropped my oldest boy off at his blind and was on my way to set up under some trees along a big pasture when I spotted him 240ish yards away chasing a doe. Just had time to throw up the Kimber Montana .270WSM

He dropped at the shot. I had absolutely no clue it was the drop-tine buck, as with my eyes I could only tell that it was a good legal buck. To say I was surprised and tickled when I found out which buck I had dropped would be an understatement.

I've been hunting for him since archery season. Haven't seen him, nor captured on camera since two days after archery season opened. Figured he had moved on as bucks tend to do when hunting season and rut kick off.

He was approx. 1/2 mile away from where I had been getting pictures of him on trail cam since the summer.

Just pure luck.... right place at right time.

WOW...  240  yards reared up on yer hind legs and no rest... that is quite impressive... 

no photo is appearing on this post for the deer but I went to your page and traced it down...

that is one good looking deer, will make a fine European mount...

ok what's going on here?... only the 2nd page showed up till I made the last post then it showed up as page 2... looking at that rack, with the drop tine will you have room to do a Euro mount?... looks like it may be real close to the plaque...

hey did you run into the badger lately?...  :biggrin:

Guess that blows my guess of "No Trophy". :innocentwhistle:
I say what I think not think what I say.

Dunno, as I've never cared much for "record books". It's "trophy" enough in my book!  :biggrin:

Trophy is how one looks at it.  I shoot 97% antlerless :biggrin:

I agree. I just thought you were comparing it since you scored it. It's a dandy deer without the antlers either way :wink:
