Title: Big Ontario buck** PICS!**
Post by: B.O.D. on March 12, 2007, 09:05:00 AM

Was talking with the taxidemist yesterday at a sportsman show/ indoor 3D shoot in a cattle/horse show arena.
the taxidermist said he was pretty sure that the deer was shot with a longbow( Up here that could mean a modern recurve and sights, longbow or a selfbow, they are all lumped into the "longbow" class); the buck was 5 1/2 years old and was shot off a bean field just south of Ottawa about 35 min from me..
Man, what would you do if ya saw this big puppy coming out of the bush in Nov.???? :eek: :eek: :scared: We are getting some serious class bucks up here now.
the hunter had been trying to kill it for 3 years, finally got lucky. Apparently is was a 16 yard shot off the ground.
Enjoy. (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v611/ashstyk/bows%202/IMGP0876.jpg) (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v611/ashstyk/bows%202/IMGP0872.jpg)

the guy that I talked to is a great taxidermist; he had a beautiful head mount of a bear that looked like a "real"bear looking back at you, no fake looking snarling, teeth knashing bear was this fella.
I forgot to take a pic of the bear, but here is a coyote pedestal mount that he had there, very real looking. (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v611/ashstyk/bows%202/IMGP0875.jpg)

You'd almost have to quit hunting after you shot something like that!

That's a monster. Congrats to the hunter. I've always been intrigued by hunting deer in October ever since I saw photos of some of the deer in "one Mans Whitetail" I think the photographers name was Fred law or something. What a beauty.
