I figure I would get around to posting up my buck I shot opening morning in WY. He isnt the biggest buck, but I didnt think twice with only having two days to hunt. This turned out to be a very old buck. The WY F&G said he is at least 11 years old. He had 3 of his front teeth and the back ones were worn smooth. Im sure he was a much better buck in years past.

I shot him at 300 yards and my wind meter was reading 34.9 mph. hit him right in the boiler room.

Dad had a tag too. ended up with only this guy, we never saw a better buck.

247, old buck like that is a super trophy in my book. I love getting the old bucks!! Yeah, a guy can't pass a 180+ in his early prime but when the really big ones aren't to be found, i'll look for the oldest bugger around and be happy no matter the score or number of points. Congrats on a fine looking Buck!! Big ol body on that buck too!

Thanks guys.

Ya score isnt too big of a deal to me. But I felt like i shot a record, just knowing the stuff that ol buck has probably seen in his day.

The pics dont do his body justice, He was huge! by far the biggest bodied deer I have ever seen!
 
Really Nice Deer no matter what. I'd have a shot him anytime. Short headed deer, nice white face.
