On November 5, 2003 this buck raked and rubbed a small pine about 55 yards from my kitchen window. I went to Vermont for the opener of deer season and on my second night back at home, Nov. 11 at 9 p.m. a friend who is a railroad engineer called me to tell me he had hit a trophy buck with the freight train engine and asked if I would go find it and put it down. I found him and with my mini-mag in my teeth, put an arrow through his heart. He was at the time, the third largest buck ever reported in massachusetts, grossing 186 2/8". He sired many offspring and I've seen his genes in other bucks around here.
