Nice to see you again. On the walls of my big room, I have four head mounts of buck deer -- three are 8-pointers and the other is a 10-pointer; two of the 8-pointers were shot locally, while the other was taken out of Bradford County. All of the 8-pointers were shot the first day, while the 10 pointer was killed on Nov. 23 at 4:15 p.m.

The buck taken in Bradford County was first seen at 1 p.m. as it walked out of a fog bank. When I shot at the buck I thought it was a big spike (spikes were legal in those days), as it ran down the mountain. The hunter I was talking to took off after the deer, found it, and began yelling, “Man, what a buck - a big 8-pointer!”

Another hunter who had been trailing the buck in the snow and fog also found the buck. He said his brother would be driving up the woods road with his snowmobile and would take it to their barn, and I could pick it up later, after I climbed the mountain to the cabin.
