Went out yesterday evening. Wasn't in the stand more than 10 minutes when a small doe probably 60-70 lbs came through. Was eating some corn for probably 30 minutes. I didn't shoot it thinking a buck would come up after it. Got dark and never saw a buck.

Here you go. Opening day, 18 point buck shot it about 5pm on Saturday.

Sec did you here about Dr. Barns' deer?
|
I'd be willing to pay for jerky.

Sat morning my dad landed a 9 pt buck and I was fortunate enough to get a 10 pointer.
I let a 3 pt, 4 pt, and button buck walk. The rest of the weekend didn't see much. The weather was too warm and the asshat farming the land next to my dads property didn't take his corn out so the deer took to the fields after opening morning and hunkered down. |

Yeah short and skinny Dr. Barns, I have more pics that he e-mailed me on my other computer. I'll post them up later
-------------------------------------------- (NEAR La PLATA, Mo.) A former Kirksville physician was back in his old stomping ground over the weekend to deer hunt, and it's a weekend he won't soon forget. Randy Barnes, who now lives at the Lake of the Ozarks, shot this 25-point buck Saturday morning on a farm near La Plata. He told KTVO he was armed with his rifle, a cup of coffee and a five-gallon bucket to sit on when the monstrous buck came out of the woods following a doe toward him. Barnes says it was so big it looked like a small moose. He says his friends don't believe his story until he shows them the proof! "I had help field dressing the deer. It took three of us to get it in the truck. We took it over to my friend, then she was totally amazed at this monster buck that we got. "Barnes says the antlers have a 24-inch spread. He told KTVO you can sit a five-gallon bucket between them. For those of you familiar with scoring, the antlers green-scored roughly 220. He'll have the conservation department officially score them once they've dried out. Barnes says he plans to have the rack mounted and will proudly hang it on his wall. http://ktvo.com/uploadedImages/ktvo/...ries/deer1.jpghttp://ktvo.com/uploadedImages/ktvo/...ries/deer2.jpghttp://ktvo.com/uploadedImages/ktvo/...ries/deer3.jpg http://ktvo.com/uploadedImages/ktvo/...ries/deer4.jpg |

Thats a hell of a deer in any state.
I wish a bow hunter would have gotten it though...much tougher. |
yeah they realy need to move our gun season out of rut. Or adopt Iowa's Shotgun policy.

Its definitely a lifetime deer for most people. Few people get a good look at a buck like that, let alone actually make the shot.
I'd probably wreck Sec's truck to get to that deer also. Its a sacrifice I'd be willing to make. Missouri would have a lot more big bucks if they didn't RIFLE hunt during the rutt. They would be better off to move it to the first week of December, let those big bucks spread their genetics, and make it tougher to shoot the good ones. |
