New guy saying Hello/Intro

I was up in stand last night, it was hot as hell, and I got busted out right at dusk by a 6 pointer.... smelled me about 60 yards away, and just stood there looking at me. All I could do was wish I had my rifle

where i hunt you cant even legally take a six point. unless it has 4 points on one antler and 2 on the other. its pretty strange but antlered deer must have at least 4 points on one antler before it can be harvested. i usually shoot does.

Good stuff. The current world record holder is from my hometown. One year I shot a 10 pointer within 100 yards of our yardsite that scored just over 160. Definitely some monsters out here as well.

Born and raised in a small town in Saskatchewan, Canada. The hunter who shot the deer was Milo Hanson. I believe it scored 213 and change.



It was actually shot once in the base of the horn. If it would have broken, it would have not been scored.

yep that pic is of the world record holding "typical". what the hell was the guy aiming at if he almost blasted an antler off? a brain shot?
