    Thought I would share a couple of pictures.

    Possibly #7 in KS typical. Shooting/Hunting buddy of mine shot with bow.

    Most likely #1 in KS for non typical bow. Southwest KS.

    Possibly new #1 in Nebraska for non typical, not sure if it was bow or rifle. Shot is SE Neb on my home turf. Kid is said to be from Lexington Neb, correction Lexington TX.

    Will post a few more later on. Should have a 200" Whitetail taken near OK boarder in SW KS. Will post pics when I get info on it. Really nice bucks popping up here and there this year. The deer population is really down in SW KS from 10yrs ago, but the big ones are still being put down.

    That is absolutely crazy deer. If I saw a deer like that coming at me...first I would shoot it and then be nervous but they are outstanding.

    Here is my buck of the year. Nothing spectacular by any means, but cool hunt considering all the out of state hunters that pound this area. (I hunt out of state also, don't blame the hunter).

    Happy to harvest this buck at 383yrds plus. Older deer that was prefered off the property. Ran my .260 Sako M591 with a Broughton 5C barrel screwed on by Jered some time back. Running 142gr SMK. They did the job, but was through and through (shoulder). Will continue with some hunting pills for that rig.

    Oh and as you can see on his right ear he was laying in some brush thought it was a forky took a shot off hand about 160 yards off only his head was poking out well I gave him a slight haircut and pierced his ear
