Middle Photo - Ron Adkins, left in his photo, shot his buck the last morning of the hunt. The 4x4 buck is 25 inches wide with narly split eyeguards. Ron used his Winchester 270 to harvest the buck at 280 yards.

Bottom Photo - Gary Adkins' 4x4 buck is 24 inches wide. He shot this buck with his Ruger 270 at 225 yards.

Gary writes, "Benign weather and a full moon made hunting more difficult, the bucks were not aggressively seeking does although you could tell their interest was heating up. We saw far less animals than in previous years, although their sign was present, they were just not that active. As usual though, we had a great time and hope to return next year."
