FINAL POSTING, posting 13 of 13 in this SERIES chronicling the life of "The Wounded Buck". "Click" http://www.pbase.com/hankvv/image/153715503 for posting #1, then "Click" "Next" "Next" etc., or hit the right arrow on the keyboard, to view all postings in the order posted.

Two sets of images.

Top Image: The BOSS hot in pursuit of a Doe. (November 2013.) He's starting to show his age; however, both wounds seem to be completely healed now.


The Boss, on the left, next, two other 10 point Bucks, then, an eight pointer. Note, both of the 10 pointers in the middle have extensively damaged antlers, possibly from a fight with the Boss; however, there don't seem to be any flesh wounds which often occur during a serious confrontation. Hence, the damage may be due to a confrontation with a tree whilst they were running fast through the thick woods????. In any case, both of these Bucks are quite large and will likely give the Boss a run for his money soon.


END of SERIES.
