13 Point; Green score: 187 non-typical; Beams: 27 inches; Spread: 22.5; Tip to Tip:
17; Dressed: 225 pounds
This buck was taken with a 12 gauge shotgun on November 21st, 2007 at about 4:15pm
in the woods behind my farm in the Town of Evans. It was rainy all afternoon. When
I shot the buck it was a downpour. He was chasing a doe through a field. I saw the
doe first and he wasn't far behind. The shot was only 20 yards. He dropped 5 feet
from where I took the shot.
The butcher weighed him at 225lbs dressed. The rough score is about 187 non-typical
13 pointer, 27 inch main beams, 22.5 inch inside spread, and 17 inches tip to tip.
This was only the 2nd day I'd been deer hunting in 4 years because I was away at
college. My dad is picking up the taxidermy bill as a Christmas present.
* Notice the right side of the antlers where a stick or parasite disrupted antler
growth.
* Joe's father heard about this website from Will Elliot of the Buffalo News. Thanks Will!
