TOM SAWYER: 11/14/09
127 LB 4 POINT BUCK
For those of you who know Tom, this is not news,
but in
case you don't know him here is a little
information.
Tom loves hunting the big
woods. By that I mean,
Tom will go hunting where the majority of my
customers do
not. Growing up in the Adirondacks,
has made him totally comfortable in the big
woods.
This 4 pointer was taken on state land where no
one else bowhunts.
Today was a little different because some other
bowhunter gave this buck a haircut without ever
cutting the skin. If whoever made the shave shot
made it with the sun out, I bet that was a sight for
sore eyes. Over
the summer, Tom had seen
two
real nice bucks, that he was hoping he could
meat
up with one, between the green beans and mashed
potatoes during bow season. He was
hunting out of
his camp near Belfast, NY for 8 days
and only saw
4 deer. During the early season he
saw two bucks
and four does in one day. On his
vacation week,
deer were few and far between, BUT,
LIFE IS STILL GOOD !
