Finally got this one after trying for 3 years. Got a doe also yesterday. OK was good to me this year.

Glad it came together for you. Love the chocolate antlers and crab claws.

That's actually what I've been calling him. Crab claw. I missed him bow hunting last year. He is not as big as my last one, but it was the challenge that made him special.

Thanks, this was my last one and my first with a bow.

Both in National forest.

CONGRATULATIONS on both of those 2 bucks. They each have their own character but was crab claw buck taking over the area where you took the other bucks area?

They used to hang together other than the rut. I missed the crab claw buck with my bow last year. Hunted many days and had just the one shot and tinked a branch. This year I tagged him with a 300WSM. Never saw him during bow season but the rutt got him this year.

There is another crazy antlered buck in the same area. Hope I get a shot at him in late bow season. We can hunt until Jan 15th in OK.

Nice! Makes me want to start chasing whitetails..... I keep hearing how fun it is in Wyoming and Idaho from some of my buddies at work.
