<span style="font-size: 11pt">I was invited to a property for some hunting last week and had breakfast with the land owner the morning after filling my tag. He mentioned a large number of deer in a certain area of his land and that his property manager was worried they may have poachers coming in there. His concern was caused by spotting two deer floating in the river by a low water crossing. I asked if he looked at the deer to see if they may have been bucks that got locked up and fell in the water, he said they had not even thought of that possibility. So, off we went to investigate.... </span>
<span style="font-size: 11pt">It looks like the eight point was on his way down hill and the ten was fighting to be the new dominant buck of the area. Both were trophy quality. I wish I could have seen them before they fell in the water... The ten was touching 170 and the eight was a solid 150 class. My hunting buddy and the land owner are business partners, so they are having them mounted (European style) and they will be displayed in their new office. Very cool way to end a great hunt.</span>
