After he has completed 30 plus years of bowhunting, my Dad phoned me today with what would begin two days of drama looking for a deer which he stated was "a monster".
Over the course of two days, I toiled through his frustration and longing to find the monster he so wanted to harvest. I finally received the call! And it started just like this:
After well over 40 man hours of tracking including that of a professional tracking dog, a buck of a lifetime for my Dad finally came true. He has one other on the wall he shot with a rifle that is bigger but this is by far his biggest ever bow buck! Preliminary guess scoring shows it to be in the 120-130 class in scoring. My dad and I laughed however as we both scored it as "priceless" because of all the great adventure, teamwork, and shared satisfaction this Maple City Monster brought into our lives! What a great blessing from the Lord! Way to go Dad!!!!!!
I would ask how many of you have ran into a bowhunter recently who is in their 60's and hunts this hard!
Big Bucks!
