    Some of you may remember when I posted “The boys in the Basement” about 2 years ago. I recall some of the comments that had to do with the pink insulation.

    Well, I finally did something about it last winter and since added Rocket, Crabby, and now Tank to the mix. I know that I appreciate looking at these guys more than anyone else but thought I would share.
    I wasn’t sure what to think of Tank at first but, the more I look at him the happier I get.

    Just seems funny to me that a short time ago (2005) I didn’t even have 1 buck for the wall. Well boys here’s to what someone said before “Studs on Studs”.
    1. Tank (Head-on)
    2. Tank (Side view)
    3. Rocket, Lucky 13, Tank
    4. T-giving Buck, Rocket, Lucky 13, Tank, No name
    5. Same as #4. Different angle
    6. Lucky 13 – Personal Best
    7. T-woods Buck and Crabby
    8. Pic of all 7

    6 out of the 7 are taken on 4 different properties in Central Minnesota. Rocket was shot in Buffalo County, WI. 1 property accounts for 3 of them and I only see similarities in 2 of them (Lucky 13 and No name).

    Thanks for all the positive feedback

    What changed?? You have clearly figured something out. Did you start hunting in better places, improving your own property or selective harvests for a few years to let them gorw?
    I dream of shooting “A” buck like you have just shown us a wall of. You are THE MAN.
