Not the biggest bucks but a great opening day in Savannah GA. My son shot two deer that morning I was blessed with a nice 8 point. Any excuse to take the kids to the woods is worth the time spent with your kids.

Genuine Washington State "Elk-A-Buck-A-Doe". Doe taken by Billy Edwards, Elk antlers taken by his Dad 30 years earlier, Buck...WHAT BUCK?!

I've got more mileage out of this photo than any other! Drove by my Dad & Mom's house to show them -- "Hey Dad, where's those elk antlers you have?" We literally did a quick scalp job for the photo -- no Photo Shop involved in this picture!

I tracked this bad boy for two days! Three slugs later and I brought him down! I'll never go hunting without my red rider! Hunting in your house is the way to go!

My wife shot her first bull elk in the Gila Wilderness of New Mexico. 633 yards off a tri-pod!!! Sarah Palin eat your heart out!!

He has 10 Points and a 22 inch spread. You can't really see the 10 point because theres a lil 1 1/2 inch point infront of his left brow tine. Hes my second buck but the biggest buck I've shot and for only being 16 I'm really content with that :)

I live in Eau Claire, Wisconsin. I went out on county land only 5 minutes from my house at 9:30am on opening day and shot my deer 2 hours later at 11:30am. It was a short day for me...

This light display says it all.

I shot this buck in Montgomery County PA, 6:00 in the morning close to the job site before going to work....not much of a story.

Hey Moose experts, can this be true?!

Here's what the forwarded email said...

"By the length of his beard and the grey legs, I figure he must be over 10 years old. He looks to be well over 8 feet at the top of the shoulder hump,and with his head up the height to the top of his antler must be about 12 feet .This guy is king of the forest, no bear or pack of wolves would dare come after him when he has this rack......Considering that a dirt road can fit 1 1/2 cars across ... this fellow is HUGE ...THIS IS ONE BIG BOY!

THE PICTURE WAS TAKEN IN ELLIOT LAKE ( Elliot Lake is near Sault Ste. Marie. MI in Michigan 's Upper Peninsula )

Yes it is a regular size dirt road."

Then on Thanksgiving another friend and I took our daughters and hit the mountains. After hiking for miles, Danielle and I caught sight of a fair buck and tried to sneak up on him. We got within 400 yards, but they kept starring at us, so I took a shot. Missed!

Sunday was the final day of the season and I received permission to hunt on the prairie. I jumped in the suburban after lunch and headed out. As promised there were nine deer just waiting for me to arrive. I began my approach when out of nowhere a shot rang out and away they went. I got in the rig and took off down the road. They settled down in the field and I stopped. With nothing to hide behind and the buck I wanted standing 300 yards away, I decided to use the hood of the suburban as a rifle rest and set my sights on this 3 x 3.

We have a success and a sad story...

My son Caleb Stettler and his grandfather bagged this guy Thanksgiving Day in Walnut Cove, NC. We had been hunting all week trying to get each of the kids an opportunity. There was only one stand -- my dad's -- that was producing opportunities and it was my oldest son's turn to go with papa. The funny part is the club has deer antler restrictions and this guy did not make the cut, but was by far the biggest deer my son has had an opportunity to see let alone harvest. Calling from the box blind on his cell, my dad called me to see if it was the one saw the day before and he called the land owner. He got the green light and the rest is history. It was a nice ending to a crazy Thanksgiving. Sure glad the buck was in no hurry. I of course got in big trouble with my daughter (Katie). I would not let her shoot a younger 6 pt the day before from the same stand. I tried to make it up to her Friday after Thanksgiving. We had a doe come within 25 yards. She had some technical difficulties getting the gun shouldered -- I ASSUMED she was ready. Needless to say the deer spooked and that was that. It was cool though to see her nervous anticipation. The way I get everytime I see a deer in the woods.
