I know it's not really fair but I thought I'd share anyway. It's not a true submission because I didn't take it, my brother shot him and I hauled it home. I myself got skunked on the deer hunt but I'm hoping to fill a Montana Elk land owner tag.

WHy the 2 holes in his back?

[trouble2405]

got a love them (THOSE ARE THE ENTRY HOLES) YES I STUCK HIM TWICE. if your not on the rage band wagon this should be enough why! Since you asked you can get the whole story or nights ordeal you take your pick. The first shot was high (probaly the fact of me freaking at the size of him) droped in his tracks direct spine shot. he was down for about fifteen minutes coyotes started baying on the other side of the corn field he jumped
up came straight toward me dragging his back legs. I am hunting with my back to the river he crossed comming in. So in an attempt to stop him took the secound shot quarting away (took out one lung nicked aorta) trying to keep him from the water went about ten feet and was down for a half hour layed his head down thought it was over started un buckling lowered bow and was half way down when the #$%^%# coyotes bayed again about twenty yards away in the corn field he jumped back up made the river crossed and could not get up the full bank. two hours later 13miles on the quad and permission from two different farmers to get to him im finaly back on him still not dead. drove back up to the closest farm house got a ride back to truck were I thought the cell phone was(nope) drove back over to farm. NEXT lesson learned wet deer have nothing you can hold on to 30 min to field dress another hour dragging to quad. by myself. could not lift on to quad figured out ratchet straps idea. then quad starts tipping field dressed was proably about 260-275lbs rode up the ramps standing on the right side peg. now 0130 pull into my drive way to red and blue lights wife freaked called sherif cause i wasnt back yet and no one could get me on the cell. 0830 next morning checked and then delivered to omish for proccessing "largest body deer i have ever seen" seventy year old amish butcher wieghed after skinned head off 238 lbs. bottom line my biggest deer! and i grew up hunting mulies>>>>>>>>>>>

Our blackpowder starts tomorrow. I am going to go out but probably will not shoot at anything because I have a hunt planned in a better area next weekend. It would have to be a monster to kill it tomorrow. I can still bowhunt next weekend though I I do kill something tomorrow.

yes of course you can still enter.... espically for how many photos we do have

Gotta love the Rage... but to me that deer seems a little small for 238lbs....
