Here are the Racks

So the guys had a great weekend as you can see.

Rich shot the biggest deer. He got his Saturday afternoon.

Carson had the next biggest. He got his shortly after Rich shot his. Dave was standing on a plateau trying to help Rich get his deer gutted and watching Carson through binoculars. Dave said it was pretty exciting to watch the events unfold as Carson tagged his first deer.

Unfortunately, Carson shot his late in the afternoon and Dave was already helping Rich get his out. That meant that Carson wouldn't be able to get his deer out that night. So the solution was to cut the head off and Dave left his shirt on the carcass. The head was cut off so some other hunter couldn't walk off with Carson's deer. The shirt was left on the carcass in hopes of deterring any critter who might want a snack. Each solution worked. The next morning the body was still where it was left and it was untouched.

Dave had the smallest, but it was still big. He shot his almost right off the bat Saturday morning. Rich joked that Dave finally was big enough to get his deer out all by himself.

And now for a few more pictures...
