My S.W. Montana Whitetail

Shot this guy on the 29th of October. He was the smaller sidekick of the buck I hunted all through archery season. That buck was last seen hanging out by a ranch headquarters. Hopefully he will survive this season so I can hunt him next season!

I'd say he's pretty darned nice.
Heck of a good buck. Love the character.

Not bad at all for a second choice buck, dang I'd take him any year.

No doubt!! I would take him anytime!! Congrats to ya!

Thanks! I did decide early on that id be happy with either one of the two bucks, but standing side by side the other buck was much bigger, in both body and antler size. This buck only weighted 120 lbs dressed out and scores somewhere in the 140 range. My fiancee's mule deer sure puts him to shame though! Oh well, next year is my year to get a nice muley!
