Congrats Mike, couldn't of happened to a more dedicated hunter as you. Everyone could use an extra treestand, I'm sure you'll put it to good use. Haven't heard from you in awhile, was about to put out a S.O.S.

Speaking of meat, our freezer is about to get fuller. Heading out on Sunday for a Plains Buffalo Hunt. There's 3 big Bulls, one with my name on it. The Exomag should be able to put a 1000 lb. animal down. Was supposed to go out tomorrow, but just got called in to work tonight. Hopefully Sunday is the day. The weather here been very mild, should be good.

Take care bud !!

Congratuluations Mike, let us know what it scored and what took first and second. I have heard some big ones went down this year not far from me but supposedly they we shot by some guys who live in Ottawa. There is a group of about 6-8 that come out every year. They got lots but I didn't even get to shoot at one. :cry:

Thanks guys!...

Hope you get one of them Buffs, Neil!... The best of Luck to ya!

Here you go, Steve. Of course this was scored "UNOFFICIAL" by Rob...


133 4/8 Gross Score
130 6/8 Net Score

As for the other two deer that took 1st and 2nd places,
I didn't see any pics of the one that took second as he didn't have any to show me and didn't have a score to show for the second place winner either ( I wonder why???)... But I did see a pic of the 1st place winner and he was a big 8 with good heavy mass, I believe he went in the high 140's Gross.

Congrats Mike!

I never did get mine in, but it looks like I wouldn't have won anything anyway.

Geez Chris,

You should have entered him, he was a nice buck!... Who knows, you might have had a chance at coming in 4th place...

You're gonna have the mount on your wall soon enough, and that's something to be proud of!... :)
