Woah - what's the width on that big boy?

No luck for me this year unfortunately, but I already had a pretty full freezer so I was being really picky. Saw a couple spikes, forks, plenty of does, but no big bucks in person. Had a couple nice ones on camera but I'm out of time (and out of my wife's patience...).

Mine doesn't give me too much grief about going out but her honey do list keeps growing. Yesterday was our last day of rifle and I got a doe to add to the freezer that is full! Now I'll be playing catch up on that list.

Thank you! First deer with the smokeless and biggest to date. Super excited.
Honest to gosh I don't remember how wide he was and won't know till the spring when it's done.

Brux or Hells Canyon barrel? Just want to make sure since I am contemplating a build myself. I currently have a CVA 45-70 conversion. Thank you.

I'm sure it's a hca carbon, on a brux blank.

That's what I was thinking and what I have in mind for the build I am thinking about.
Nice! I'd like to kidnap a few of his kids and let em breed around here!
That low squared off rack is unusual. Around here they generally rise a little more above the skull before branching out.
