I too am shaking my head on that one. If the guy just couldn't afford a good mount, leave in the freezer and save up all your extra money. How can you pass up mounting a deer like that. That deer is beyond a buck of a lifetime.

Anybody know the story of this buck? I heard of a 22 pt shot in Stueben supposedly with a bow but encon check the deer out and it had been shot with a rifle and tagged with a bow tag. The deer was confiscated of course and tickets issued.

The story in the NY Outdoor News said he was late getting into the woods because he had to drop his kids off at daycare. He was 300 yds. from his stand when he shot this deer with his bow. He could hear him grunting on the other side of the hill. He never knew this buck was in there. He knew of two 8-pointers which he was after. I guess he was within yards of the deer when he shot him. I said nothing about it being shot with a rifle and tickets issued.

Is this article in the latest Outdoor News? Did it show any other pics. or give a score for the buck? If so I might have to find me a copy.
