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.
