Dunno.

Ask Bob.

My granddaughter is into shed hunting. She's a bit bummed I didn't shoot them off cleanly at the skull . . .

That's cool Dave, you did good. At least one of them got to run off. Sounds like Tye was ready to take care of it for you. How long do you figure the unlucky deer had been dead? I'm sure if you would have contacted a Game Warden he would have given the dead one to you, if it was still good.

I don't know much about Coues deer, but those do appear to be trophy class....

I should get around to posting my deer from this past season...

The dead one had been dead for at least a day. Hard to be sure as it was quite warm out. Yeah, Tye was all fired up and wanted to "help".

A local hunter told me they were both trophy class and if I had shot the live one and had the two mounted in the locked together position they might be worth $10,000. I didn't have a deer tag, didn't want meat from an exhausted animal and wanted the healthy one to have a second chance.

They aren't book bucks but they are close. In another year, the lucky one will be on the last pages for certain. +1 on posting your deer. It's only been a 1/2 year dude.

Dave - good call on not killing the lucky one. The lactic acid build up would have made it rubber dog food. You should get those racks scored and estimate in the missing bits.

I would just like to take a second to thank Sky-Guy for all that he does here at PP. You really keep this place going dude, even though you need no recognition or thanks....thanks a lot

That admin guy and the gay dude from the TV show LOST just don't have the personality and selfless work ethic that Sky-Guy does.

If there was ever a kid that needed to get eaten by a tiger shark......

Oh wait, that's just mean to the shark.

Maybe today is the day Enjoy sitting on your ass.

Again, my apologies to any and all tiger sharks out there. That was just uncalled for by me.

Thanks for getting the video to work Sky-guy.

Cool things happen when you get outside. Nice job Dave on saving one buck's life.
