Tom's buck

Tom went deer hunting and shot a buck on the opening morning. He called me around 10:30 or 11:00 to check in. While on the phone he saw a four point and shot it while leaving the phone on the ground so I could hear. After hearing the clicking of him releasing the shells, he picked up the phone saying, "crap, it just fell off a cliff!" It ended up falling off several cliffs and sliding down the face of Timp several hundred yards. It took him about 10 minutes or so to get to it. He then called me to tell me that his four point was now a two by one. I guess that's the chance you take when you hunt on the face of Timp and in an area where there are lots of cliffs. Here are some photos of the antlers, or what's left of them. We decided to mount it and put it next to the elk (when we get it back).




Looks pretty nice, don't you think? HAHA
