    That's back when a truck hood would hold a deer. Nowadays the hood would collapse. haha Great pictures Zack! Thanks for sharing.

      Yep, same with my Grandfather.

          Bet you could build a fire this winter, lie down in front of it and you could hear him.

          The deer is awesome but look at that corral

            What's even better about this buck is back at that time in Oklahoma if someone saw a track it was a big deal and people would come over just to see it if it was on your place. To shoot a buck of this size you were a legend. Great photo and buck.

                Exactly. Back in his day my great grandpa hunted for everyone that lived in that valley. That was prior to all the regulations we have now. He would be gone for several days at a time hunting. He also drove a school bus because he said it was the best way to find deer crossings and to top it off they were paying him to do it.

                  The first buck had to be a record of some sort. Your Grandpa shot some studs in his day.

                      Great pics and stories. Ti Valley is somewhat familiar through stories told by my dad and others.
