Re: big buck contest...

Are we going to do this on an Honor system? I think in order to count a buck or doe you should have something in the picture to qualify such as a sign with the date or a date stamp on the picture itself. How will we be required to score bucks?

I hear that, damn rain won't quit, I am in, there seem to be some good deer on the place I hunt this year. Thats if I get to hunt much with two little kids.
 
Re: big buck contest...

Yeah boy I'm in, same for me though, rifle season starts the 15th but I have an Any Deer tag...so do how bout those mule deer? they counting? Been tryin to stick two big ones for a few weeks now, but if I don't score they are dead meat once gun time rolls around.

Re: big buck contest...

jgunner...I couldn't resist....LOL

I would love to have killed that monster but I didn't and thats not me...However the guy killed it about 5 minutes from here in Brownsville, Tn...He went back the next day and killed another great buck...I'll try to post it as well....I'm still hunting for my monster...Its got to be waiting on me somewhere...Great thread though and the contest sounds great...keep it running. I would say one for whitetail and one for Muleys though. A narrow muley could easily be 26" wide...so not real easy to compare.
 
Re: big buck contest...

I'm in jgunner. I am new to Missouri but have been bow hunting since the season started. Where is Harrisonville compared to KC? My hunting grounds are about an hour and a half north of KC, any advice on hunting public lands around here?
 
Re: big buck contest...

Very nice. Where abouts in MO? Just general area. I heard some shooting goin on around me last weekend in Miller Co. That is a goodin for sure Congrats to the shooter.

Re: big buck contest...

Well I finally had the chance to check my trail camera and found this bad boy just waiting for me to greet him. Might as well judge now because he is going to be mine soon:

Re: big buck contest...

Thanks, we seen some deer from the boat, but not this one, parked the boat and made the climb on top of a plateau and then looked down into Tons of drainages that were coming off this plateau, all the deer were in these drainages sleeping. Awesome hunt, "Tipem Over" was with me on this hunt! Seen 3 wolves that day too!
 
Re: big buck contest...

I had a tag in my pocket for them but I didnt shoot I thought there might be a monster mule deer in there, going back tomorrow morning to get TipemOver a good Buck too, and Ill be Wolf hunting! MT now has a season and its about time!
