Congratulations!

Polk county. Agriculture and Oak ridges. LOVING the baiting ban. Seeing deer out of stands that haven't been productive in years.

He just turned 10 on Oct. 1st. He’s been chomping at the bit to hunt. I told him when he was 10 he could hunt with us, and if he follows instructions he could shot one of ours for us. Last night we went down to my folks and sat on the edge of one of the fields. 4 came out. This was the biggest and the furthest (225 yds) I coached him through it. It took him 5 mins to calm down enough to take the shot. I told him after how proud I was that he waited until he had calmed down and didn’t just send lead down range hoping to hit it. Found out he Shot the top of the heart off when I gutted it.

Way to go little man!! That rifle brings back memories, it looks just like my grandfathers Remington that I was allowed to use when I first started to hunt. Congrats again!

main beam? nothings broken... hmmm seems like this deer really is that big? I been telling my dad its big but not trophy Im guessing it scores in the 130?

Posted

I would add another 40 at least to that measurement,

It is HUGE if you ask me.

Posted

Ummm, the one laying next to it is closer to 130. That buck is huge, congrats.

huh? it really is that big? or are you guys just guessing based on the pic?

any shops around the anoka county area tht would be able to guess the size?

im working on doing a wood plaque mount, you know the walmart mounts on this deer and yes I already have cut the section out of the skull so no euro or shoulder mount will be possible anymore. Would be nice to have but our money can go twards better things plus we think the rack is ugly at the same time.

as much as this deer could have been mine since it came to me first but faster than the flash himself Im just so happy to see how lucky my pops is that throughout the years of hardships of having to sell his guns for money and losing so many treasured materialistic items and giving up all materialism things that ppl want, the gun we built together after life got a little easier on us that shot this deer and another nice 8 from last year, he truly deserved it.

Posted

Thats a really nice buck mo matter how you hang it on the wall! That thing is awesome

Posted

Bring that ugly rack to the deer classic in March It's at the national sports.centre in blaine Ask for me i'll measure it for you.

you can still get a shoulder mount a taxidermist can order another hide. It not uncommon for a taxidermist to use another cape, because some one neck shoots or puts a killing shot in the neck or slits the throat. It will cost a little more for another cape but may be still worth it.

Posted

holy daaaaanng! congrats. thats definitely a deer of a lifetime. what part of the state was this beast from?

Posted

Handgunner a taxidermist can put those antlers on any cape and build you a shoulder mount. That is a great deer I think mine was a 130's buck yours is in the high 160's or 170's

congrats

I may have an extra cape if you want one.

I bet that deer scores 180-195 but im not a pro just exited that your dad and you connected on such nice deer.

      Previous owner (22 years and 5,000 miles ago) said it was prone to flooding when sitting for a long time or trailering, so I shut the fuel off in both cases.   Primary is significantly worn.  I replaced several rollers and pins which helped.  I have two used clutches in much better condition that I could (and should) install.   It seems more like when I hit the throttle, but the bog could be from poor clutch shifting.  Will have to pay attention next time and inspect the clutches.  Thanks for the ideas.

      Nope, he beat me fair and square, all his.  This weather had been depressing. As it sits now we are looking at a later than normal ice out. I hate scrabbling with docks, lifts, boats right before opener. Also limits some pre opener crappie chances.

      In those years Polaris was known to put buna tipped needles in there sleds. They get a ring around the seat and don't seal shut. But if that would be the case your problem would be with the motor shut off and filling the crankcase with gas. If your plugs are brown that is were they should be. I wouldn't drop that needle down to the last grove. I would replace them before I did that. I have never had a carb with that setting. Have you looked at your clutches? They could be dirty or have a bad roller.  Does it bog as it's accelerating or when you hit the throttle?

      but if he really wants I can change the date..  
    • Wanderer
      As soon as I started reading mind went to needles and seats.  You might want to try just replacing those first?  I’ve only done that once before in my life but it made the difference.  A carb refresh in 8,000 miles seems reasonable.
    • Wanderer
      Good luck smurfy!  On getting drawn, I mean!   If it comes down to it, I know a guy that might be interested in a nice hide.

      My 30 year-old Indy 500 (over 8,000 miles) has been having a mid-range bog for many years now.  It is worse on warm days and when the engine is warmer.  The sled runs fine up to about 1/4 throttle, then runs extremely rich up to 3/4 throttle.  The spark plugs are dark brown (better brown than down?) but not saturated.  8 years ago I moved the clips on the jet needles from the 3rd to the 2nd groove to lean the mixture and it helped for a while.   Should I move the clips to the top groove (temporary solution)? Could the jet needles, needle jets, and/or the main jets be warn and need replacement?   Don't think I will have time to tear the carbs apart this season for a rebuild so I may just band-aid the problem.
    • JerkinLips
      I think that Mike89 picked April 26 two hours before you, jparrucci.  Is that correct Mike89?

      My last hide I gave to my Taxidermist friend to make what ever he liked out of it.   I've got a few fun Bear hunt stories to be told.  All 3 of us our first year stupidly tracking a blood trail in the dark together and getting lost, luckily smelled the bait making circles and got out. 🫣 Flash lights dying, deep in a swamp following a blood trail in the dark, the one who stayed at the bait called us back in!  We learned our second bear! Lol. 😞  Downing a wounded charging bear with the last bullet when tracking, no lie! 😬    Have had my fun!  🥳
