2003 Archery Monster Buck (pics)

Post by BOHNTR » Sun Jan 12, 2003 9:17 am

Here's a huge desert buck my hunting partner arrowed after I gave him a few hand signals to get in on the buck. I'd been hunting this buck for the last 3 years and when I spotted him again this particular morning, he was on my hunting partners ridge. It took all I had to let him know about the buck! :) One arrow at 15 yards did the trick. He's 27 1/4" wide, and gross scores 190 5/8" and nets 185 1/8" P&Y. One of the largest desert bucks ever arrowed in Arizona. Hope you enjoy the photos.

Sweet, absolutely love the pictures. I think it's has to be much more rewarding and exciting to bag a big buck like that with a bow. Awesome!!

Nice wish I had enough money to go to arazona I've never had a chance at anything bigger than 174" but I only hunt close to home and have never even hunted up by the grays river right here in wyoming and I'd like to try there someday

Wow. Thats a bruiser.
Whats the story behind the buck. Was it a guided hunt? Did you luck on to him? Had you been watching him before??

Congrats..

akw270:

I hunted that buck for the last 3 years during the January rut hunt. No guide here, just a lot of scouting and familiarization with the area. However, I keep telling my buddy I should get some type of guide fee for getting him in on that buck. :lol:

Just an update, the buck officially scored 192" gross and netted 187" P&Y. It is the largest scoring mule deer arrowed in Arizona from a desert unit.

Glad you liked the picture.
