More pictures added: The blurry ones were shot from my photo album....sorry for the quality. Got my 2007 mount back yesterday and put it towards the beginning. It's my current avitar.
I figured this was the forum for this.
I'm getting better with the camera and computer. I put together a little slideshow on photobucket that shoes some of the better bucks I've been lucky to take since 1995. Rifleman and Savage shooter put up some nice pictures and slideshows in the past 2 months and I enjoyed them a lot. I'm not one to boast about horns even though it's my goal each year to take some good ones.
There are 4 other die hards in our camp that have at least as many mounts and racks. All from a relatively small area of under 2000 acres bordered by heavily hunted areas and unfenced. We have about 20 mounts that are between 120 - 158. Probably 40-50 racks in the 100-120 class....all in the last 20 years. Combo of bow, shotgun and ML.
The biggerst challenge...one we have not mastered yet....is letting a 125-130 class buck go. That's all it would take to step it up a notch around here. However, the spotlighters and neighbors won't let them go and most of us end up squeezing on 3 1/2 year olds each year.....or someone else almost surely will.
Hope this works! Click on the picture.
