    James,
    Thanks for your respose! I’ld like to investigate the areas around sartell or brainered. I quess basically where I could fish from my boat. Were you guys in the brainerd area for the show? River looked wide and fairly deep in that area and looks like it’s somthing I could handle with my boat. I just curious what area you guys were on and what access you used with your rig in the show? Looked like some fun C&R fishin. Thanks again in advance.

    I’m guessing that it is version 6.0 It has a bunch of numbers after the 6.0 also. Does that help??


    I run 6.0 as well and the full screen function works great.

    Jim… I’m stumped. Sorry.

    There may have been up to 3 really good bucks shot in the last 24 hours by the Banks family in the Cannon Falls area. Story and pics to follow. One of the bucks may already have his picture on this website! And one “may” have been shot by yours truley!

    Here is Grandpa Banks, sorry for the quality, but we are both sick and were a bit tired after hauling mine out 3/4 of a mile earlier in the day. Not measured yet but guessing about 140″ 8pt. My dad has shot more 140″+ bucks than anyone I know but its been awhile since one fell in MN. Great job dad!!!

    Nice buck grandpa “R” I have alot of history with this buck! he started bedding on my farm as a 1.5 year old. last year as a 2.5 year old he was about 18″ wide and a nice buck. I passed him 3 times last year in archery season. this season i started to get scout gaurd videos in august. he had put on about 20″ of antler! and had a hole or damage to his right main beam. I had him at 18Yards on the 26th of oct.2009. can’t imagine what one more year would have done for him! Again congrats on a good buck! gramps practices qdm and thats why we have more good bucks in this area. Scott… I have some good videos of this buck if you want me to email them to you?

    Congrats to all of you. As I said in another post, you guys all are doing things right; such that seeing these pictures and hearing the stories comes as no great surprise.

    Scott – why’d you have to make Rick sound so old! Congrats Gramps. Seeing that wall of bucks last fall helped me get a handle on where Scott got the deer-bug from!

    Nice buck Scott! i know you are very dedicated to qdm and if you shot this buck where i think you did… you have probably passed him several times in the past few years waiting for him to mature to the trophy he is today!

    You are right Bob, he is only the 2nd buck shot out of this 160 acres in the last 4 years! The other was 120″ 8pt. that was my buddies personal best so I was happy for him to shoot that one.

    Can’t get big if you shoot them young!
