Roger Harvests Big Buck Weighing 220 Pounds
I would like to share my story with you about my deer hunting experience.
I was hunting one rainy day in the fall of 2005.
I went to sit in my deer stand, and what was really special for me was that I had my dad with me.
My father and I watched two does eating the apples I had placed near my deer hunting stand. We noticed the does were acting strange, so we kept watching.
Not seeing what had caused the does to act strangely, I decided we were going to leave because it was on Halloween night and I was going to take my son out trick or treating.
When I stood up, there the big buck was. He was standing right under my stand.
We couldn't see the huge buck because he was in my blind spot.
He was only 30 to 40 feet from me. I took aim and shot. The big buck took off running with his tail down. I felt sure it was a good sign that he was hit.
By now the rain was pouring down and there was no sign of blood. My dad and I split up and began searching. Five minutes later we found the big buck.
It was a moment I will never forget!!!! A nice trophy, and 220 pounds of meat.
Here are two pictures of my trophy.

I've seen some subtle ways to position a buck in a truck or trailer for transport that may still show off their rack.
Did you tie that buck up on your truck like that to show it off or was there some other reason you'd do that? Ted
