Derek Budsberg, 16, of Wisconsin shot this 160-class 11-pointer while
bow-hunting on Oct. 23. Due to a football injury, he was unable to hunt for
most of the early season. In fact, this was only his second time out hunting
this fall, and he had planned to shoot the first buck he saw that afternoon.
Imagine his surprise (and excitement!) when this monster strolled within 30
yards of his tree stand. The buck is a mainframe 5x5 with a split brow tine.
Congratulations on a great buck, Derek!
