Already had a high opinion of Kentucky. It just got higher. Super buck!

Good look'n deer  

Nice TJ, big bucks early seems to be your theme.

Thats the kind of stuff you dream about!  Congrats!  Could you give us a rundown of the buck's actual body weight and your hunting set-up?

Hey guys thanks a lot. I called this deer "Barnacle Bill". He was one of the longest and heaviest bucks I've ever taken. Guru he had a 22" neck and was exactly 8" from eye to nose tip. I didn't weigh him due to it's very warm here and I was scrambling all last night to get him worked up. Teeth look to me like he was a 4-1/2 year old.

I have many trail cam photos of him along with a another great 10 pointer he was running with. I really wanted him do to he is a year or two older and more mature than the young 10.

Notice my treestand in the first black and white photo. I had my trail camera running when I shot him right in front of it so hopefully I got something good on it at time of impact with me in the background in the stand. I'll check it out tonight.

Thanks for all the ataboy's
