My wife shot her first Buck late yesterday. I wish I knew how to post picture but I'm not a computer guru. He weighed 201lbs. First Buck and it scores 150 3/8, unreal! I also shot a 18 3/4 wide, 211 lb 8 point. Great memories but a ton of hard work loading and cleaning.
Damn that's a stud. Congrats
Wow. That is a fine one. What county if I may ask.
I hunt the south delta and they are just starting to chase.
sounds like a great hunt and yes that's a stud for sure ... 18" spread aint shabby either
Yeah, what county? I hunt Covington and Lawrence counties. They ain't even thinking of chasing yet. Just had a few scrapes start popping up. Sound like your area is in the rut.
South Holmes, had another Buck with him, I laughed when she told me the other one was big also but not quite the size. I was 230 yards away and I saw the kill shot with my binoculars, he dropped in his tracks. About 5 minutes she texted and ask was it ok and go see. I told her no there was 15 more minutes to shoot. Then I looked to my left and this 8 point walked out of the woods not quite on food plot 165 yards away. I dropped him in his tracks as well. Oh her deer was 11 points, 4 years old, my 8 was 5 years old but nothing close to her giant. Only her 3rd deer but 1st Buck. It was an awesome hunt to say the least. Not chasing but I did watch a spike watching a doe feed for 25 minutes and he never moved, kept his eyes clued on the doe. He was definitely in love but she wasn't. Lol
That's cool, but I go to hunt partially to get away from the boss lady, lol.
LOL, i catch your drift, we don't sit together and she has only been hunting for about 4 years. She has killed 2 does and this giant.
She can't take the cold and doesn't go too much.
Congrats to the little lady. Sounds like a good time was had.Thats what its all about.
Awesome stuff, basedog. Wish you would post a pic...sounds like a mule. Tell her congrats
Yesterday was a good day to be in the woods. Several big deer dropped in western half of the state.
Hey Clint, can I send a few pictures to you could you post them?Quote:

A few pics of Basedogs wife's deer and his. Both are great deer.
Thanks for posting wewillscrewitup, my wife would kill me if she saw this on ED without makeup.
P.S. I wish the managers for ED would change the picture thingy, there or way more easier ways to post pictures.
Once in a lifetime opportunity to double up with that caliber deer. Awesome
Actually they aged 5 and 6 years old. The 8 pt was 6, I know genitics and nutrition play the major points on antler growth and body size. But I wonder if this 8 pt wasn't injured one time at a younger age. He weighed 211 lbs with a wide rack and ok main beam length.
Base, I'm prolly not as learned as you on aging em, but my guess would be that the 8 pointer was just old/headed down hill (6.5 is an old deer in my book),,,, not injured.... good one, regardless...Quote:

LOL Tusk, I would tell her but like I said if she saw her picture w/o make up I might be outside with the dog Bear and the cat Tiger. I had my my taxidermy guy age them. Great memory indeed, she hasn't shot her rifle more than 10 times total.Quote:
