13 Year Old Tags Huge Buck With Bow

My son, James Hassler, shot this buck near our home of Kipling, Saskatchewan Canada. The buck was harvested during the archery season in mid September. He was hunting from a treestand that had been set up on land belonging to friends of our family.

The deer is a 6x7 large bodied buck that rough scores in the mid 180's. James used a Martin Leopard 50 lb compound bow to harvest this amazing animal.

James also shot this great black bear (initial measurement is 18 10/16) this spring (2009) with the same bow.

Congratulations James!! What a great year of hunting!!
