Double drop saves 8 point.

BUFF · 11-11-2007, 02:48 PM

I had to turn my video camera off this morning. This nice 8 point stayed around, some time within 10 feet of my double bull. Every time I looked at the video screen he looked a little better. If I had not turned it off, I would have surly shot him.

I love that kind of buck, out and up. Plenty of time left Buff.

The only reason that buck is still walking is that you didn't want to burn your last tag this early in the season.

You planning to be out there Thanksgiving weekend?

That's it... I wouldn't have passed him up, but then again, I haven't killed every dang thing there is to kill this season like some people have.

That's a great deer. Kudos to you for being patient on the double drop. Hard to say if i could have done the same thing.

Nice. Man, he just don't know how lucky he is.

Marty, I really hope you take the BAO monster home.

I really hope you are able to get the double drop after passing up the beauty!

That's great will power letting him walk, however I just stumbled across this on TBH. I'm sure there are plenty big ones left out there for you though.

I had a call from Dale.....Somebody killed the Double drop on the ranch behind us Sunday..... The 8 point needs to find some where else to spend his afternoons.

I heard about the double Tuesday night ...... sorry you din't get your chance at him. As seen above thought there are more nice deer out there to take his place on your wall.
