I posted my big pics in that thread, lol. My family has 228 acres near Shinnston, WV. The deer are browse deer, over hunted, and not managed (yet). Our game warden buddy does a great job on keeping the trespassers out for us these days.
But here are some pics:
Right of passage?
Airborne days:
Just stepped into the woods, about 100 yards from my cabin. When I came back in everyone asked if I forgot something, I wasn't even gone 5 minutes.
This deer stunk bad for how small he was, he was also swollen like crazy for being a 2.5 year old deer. He had 2 does with him, and he was king of the mountain that day. I put a good hunt on him to intercept him 500 yards up the hollow from where I first saw him and couldn't get a shot off.
Best season ever, also the only year we could hunt Sunday and the farthest to the right was a bowkill 8 the day before rifle season:
But this is my most special deer, also my largest body. Took him the year my father almost died and he was right there with me to watch it all go down. Prior to that deer the 'Airborne days' deer was my best buck.
I also saved everyone from the deadly 1992 Fox Squirrel Invasion, you're all welcome.
