Hi foremost Hunting!

I went out to Stockmans Farm Supply in Wilson, WI  yesterday for the free official measuring they were doing.  My 2010 buck scored 149 7/8 inches!  I paid the money for the Pope and Young record book and the State of WI book too.  I never thought I would get a deer into a record book, and he sure looks great on my wall too!

I shot this deer after a spot and stalk on Nov 13 2010 a cold wet snowing freezing rain miserable weather day.  I thought I made the perfect shot on a quartering away, bolting away deer, hit it behing the shoulder a little too far but it exited in front of the opposite shoulder and left a massive blood trail in a harvested corn field. I saw that blood trail and called my cousin for a 4 wheeler and trailer to recover the deer.  Little did we know it was a tracking job to last a couple hours!  I saved a Google Map of the event and thought I would share it here.

During field dressing the buck I found it was hit in 1 lung and went that entire distance on 1 lung!  It just goes to show that some perserverance pays off!

Here a picture of the deer in the truck.

That's awesome Pete. I'd love to see that Google map as well.

The words are linked right to the Google Map in the original post. I have a short story for the most interesting spots along the cold wet track right in the map too. Just so I could always remember them.

Wow... that looks like it was a long day. good thing you guys had a twelver of Busch Light!

Amazing that the beast went that far on one lung. Congrats on the fine buck!!!

That's a great buck. Congrats! Now how in the world do you do that with Google Maps??
