Seems a trophy around here lately is a spikehorn with both sides. Not looking too great this year so far, not as many does as usual. Gotta keep moving and see what I can find.

Shot this guy back in 1990 with a 69# Groves takedown, 2219 aluminum shaft and Bhoning Blazer broadhead. Scored 152 7/8 PY. I shot a bear in 1982 that would have made PY  if I had chosen to enter it.

I agree David, your always going to have a few guys like that. The guy that overheard it needs to call the Pope and Young and let them no.

P&Y printed a book a few years back that has nothing but listing of trophies taken with traditional equipment.  I bought it at the last PBS banquet I went to.  Its a big book with thousands of entries!

Two of my three traditional bow animals that would qualify. My third was a next morning recovery that had been found by the coyotes. I was so sick about it I didn't take field photos. I no longer leave 'em over night if I am sure of the hit.

I'd sure love to take one of those big whities---I do have a mulie in the P&Y listings and he was a thrill.  I was in Western Kansas at the time and managed to take a nice one.  Now I am in Southern Indiana and loking for one of those monster whities.

Wapiti792, I love how the bucks in your area have that slight hook to the brow tines, Couple of dandy's there.  Coyotes have NO respect for a book animal!

Last night I got my bear skull back and it will go P/Y. Not offically scored and most likely will not get it sccored offically. I measured it at 19 1/2". (http://i580.photobucket.com/albums/ss248/barebow13/IMG_0007.jpg) (http://i580.photobucket.com/albums/ss248/barebow13/FL000007.jpg)

I have spent a lifetime hunting very hard and have never seen a deer as big as you guys posted alive. Very fortunate indeed.

Post by: YORNOC on September 21, 2010, 04:18:00 PM
Why was this post edited? Someone not like to hear the truth out there?????????? Whats up? I'm pretty new, so I don't know the rules but I'm pretty disappointed right now. This seems like Massachusetts politics where only what certain people want to hear is printed?  Someone please email me either on here or personal email?????????

They are out there bud.  I missed a good 160-180 with my longbow three years ago.  Shot right underneath him at 15 yards.  Still bothers me!!!!  I would have happily entered him in P&Y.

Keep after them one will step out in-front of you.   :thumbsup:    :thumbsup:

Elkken, that's a heck of a muley.

Thanks David, it looks fantastic on the wall   :)

I'm not kidding about the bucks either. Never seen a live one. I just cannot find whitetail for the life of me. Spent 5 hours stalking around a 4000 acre WMA the other day & couldn't find a single place I'd confidently hang a stand   :(

I cleaned up the thread guys as it had gotten way off track from the author's request.....

Dave, you didn't say anything out of line....but when it was left alone it didn't make any sense since I pulled the others so I removed yours as well.....just looked out of place.  Glad you did come back and post the pics though!!!!

David, no need to be upset....just keeping the thread as the author intended.

I have taken a few P+Y antelope but haven't entered one.I plan to work on black bear next.P+Y isn't my goal but if I ever get the one I'm after,it would definitely be there.
