I finally have a few moments to post messages.

This is my deer for this year. He was shot at about 15 yards in very heavy cover along a river in eastern Montana. A HUGE buck was fighting with him and I shot the wrong one as they stepped into a clearing. I was disapointed but not dejected. Any whitetail is a nice trophy. I used a .338 Win Mag with 230 grain Winchester Failsafe handloads.

This is what I mean when I say HUGE. These bucks are from 1999 and 2000. My scope only saw one!

Happy Hunting,

Skibum,

Very, very nice deer! Thanks for sharing them with us.

Skibum,
Hopefully the "big one" makes it till next season so you can go 4 for 4. Great bucks, all of them. I have really noticed that in the last few years, eastern Montana has been producing some giant Whitetails. TTS

There is NO PLACE like eastern Montana.

I fell in love with the badlands in the SE.

There are areas in the Missouri Rive Breaks where BIG bucks will just look at you - they've never seen a human before.

Jesus is the reason for the season.

Hey Skibum, long time no see! Those are some great whitetails, congratulations.

From the looks of that one, the other buck had to be a monster!

I'd be real happy with that baby you got.
Thanks for sharing it.

Congrats, Tony

SWEET
