I had the chance to harvest this good buck on Dec 7th near Cranbrook, B.C.
I had passed up two other bucks on this morning, a small 4 and 3 spike
and seen this same buck in the rifle season and new he was in the area.
I had a tree stand set up over some adjoining trails and was offered a broad side shot at Approx. 25 yards, the arrow passed threw him busting a rib on the exit side, he ran only 50 yards before piling up, this happened to be my 11th whitetail with a bow and my 7th pope & Young class buck in 34 years of bowhunting.
He green scored out at139 net.

That's an awsome buck! With a bow to boot! Man it must be nice to live in the koots. What kind of bow is that?

Good job Elkmaster!
Real good east koot. whitetail. Thanks for your tips on my cow elk tag. I happen to see tons of deer and several good bucks but the land owner only wanted us shooting cow elk.

I have used onieda eagle bows for 18 years and like them, I hunted with recurve for 16 years before that and my shoulder can't take to much any more.
