Im not sure, but that is an impressive buck, can't wait to see it there. I might enter mine, its not that high scoring net, but not bad gross. either way, it won't look bad in the displays. Hope to see some of you there...

I attended on Sunday and actually walked away with a trophy...WooHoo.....My buck came in Second Place in the 13+ typical catagory only being beaten out by a few inches.

I'd like to say congrats to all the winners there. I think they mentioned about 589 entrys in the contest. All truly outstanding bucks.

I attended Sat and Sun and enjoyed it for the most part. at times the crowd was overwhelming. Need a larger display area for deer. My buck took first place for non typ. at 251 6/8. so i was quite pleased with that.
