    This buck was shot by my Dad (Reuben Carlson) near Two Harbors, Mn. This deer was shot before I was born……check the rack on this baby!

    Bob, I hoped you didn’t mind but I took your picture and fixed it up some. I enjoy fixing up old photos. I could do a better job with a bigger picture. So if you want, you can email me that picture at around 300 instead of 28 that you posted on here and I’ll send it back to you cleaned up.
    Oh by the way Bob, you mentioned the size of the rack. Well the first thing I noticed was the SIZE of the deer. Do you have any idea what that hog weighed?

    Perhaps the humor didn’t translate as well as I’d hoped………I just found it visually comical to see the deers front legs crossed………..I’m sure it was done to maximize driver visibility.

    I’ve seen other pics similar to this and others where the deer is simply laid across the hood. I’m all for making do with what’s available!
