His father, Al, wrote: "It was taken Thanksgiving morning behind his Grandmother's house in Granby (near Fulton).

"It was aged at 3 1/2 years old and weighed 175 pounds. It's a nice 8-point with 18 inch high rack, 16 1/2 inches between the G-2 tines and 18 1/2 at the widest width.

"It was taken at 9:15 in the morning, 15 minutes before we were getting ready to stop hunting to get home and help prepare dinner. Needless to say, we were a little late! He was hunting with his Dad, Al. I'm not sure who was more excited, him or I."
