Congrats on a great buck JD.... I was wondering which one of you would actually drop that buck..... Vs him dying of old age.... He was surely one of the most elusive bucks I've ever read of.....

Congratulations buddy! Glad it was either you or Joe that got him! This old monarch definitely lived by his wits, most do! That's why he ran to the pile at last light! Gotta love and respect these old warriors!

My hat is off TOO both you and joe. I live in a cold state and completely understand what it takes to sit out in cold, cold temps. The wood stove makes you want to stay close and blow off a hunt. So a well desirved trophy with the plus of having a good friend close by. Not just to help but to share. I will never get tired of ready about these hunt. Congrats, and thanks for sharing.

Nice job JD. Sounds like Tank fought the good fight. Everytime I heard about him he was over there, here or a tid bit over yonder a way. Thought for sure when Joe was in his socks December before last puttin on a creep he would get a shot lol.

The fat lady has sung for this year man. Tank was the one to hold out for. There are a few other 140s and a couple 130s around but they need some time. The mid 150s I passed opening day was shot late October and he was the next largest around behind tank. We'll see what next year brings there is always a good one that passed through at some point during the season.
