Some of John's bucks
John killed these bucks in the early to mid 90's. After a few tough years in the late 80's he got back on track with several nice bucks.
After this buck walked by at ten yards unscathed and unnoticed until it was too late, John succeeded in rattling him back to within bow range. He then made a perfect 25 yard shot. This heavy racked ten point gross scored in the mid 130's and was taken in 92.
In 93 this buck made the mistake of walking out of a large corn field to within fifteen yards. End of story! This ten point gross scored in the high 120's.
John shot this nine point in November 95. He made a ten yard shot.
Never give up! John arrowed this ten point in the last week of December 95 as it crossed a funnel between two large woodlots. The temperature was -10° F.
In 97 John made a trip to Iowa for four days. He rattled this nine point to within ten yards.
