Wow! I can't believe all the publicity my buck has generated!! My name is Kip Fowler and I am the lucky one that harvested this 230" buck on opening weekend here in Utah. I was totally unaware of this hunting forum until a friend of mine called me and told me to look it up yesterday. Since then I have been both surprised and flattered by what has been written about both this deer and about myself. All of the comments about my buck (we have called him Superman all summer) are justified as he truly is a magnificent trophy. I say that not to brag about him, but to pay him tribute because he simply is an awesome buck. For those of you who have paid me some tribute as a bowhunter, I am humbled by your comments and thank you for your kind words.
I can't say too much as I have been contacted by some magazines, etc. (as I am sure you guys will understand)but I can say that yes, he is a Wasatch Buck taken on public land DIY. So far he has measured out at 33" wide, he has 9 points on one side, 6 on the other and gross scores 230". I found him in early July up in some of the ugliest roughest country I've encountered and have been keeping a close eye on him ever since. I will be the first to say that I was lucky to get him, but I also will say that the story behind the kill is one I think you guys will enjoy reading. It's extreme bowhunting at it's best! So, for now, I thank you again for your interest in Superman. I truly appreciate the trophy that he is, but your comments also make this once in a lifetime experience that much more enjoyable as we are all peers and colleagues as avid bowhunters!!! Thanks again! I look forward to sharing the entire story with you as soon as I can!! Good luck to each of you this fall. I hope to enjoy in your success as well!!! Hunt Hard and Shoot Straight!!
