Hunter: Luke WoernerPoints: 8 (4L, 4R)County: PikeSeason: 2024-2025Hunt StoryThe day before this hunt was heavy rain and downpour.

Hunter: Jeremy DossPoints: 8 (4L, 4R)County: BrooksSeason: 2024-2025Hunt StoryThis deer, known as “Broke Ear,” earned his name on our trail cameras back in 2021.

Hunter: Sue FreemanPoints: 8 (4L, 4R)County: DoughertySeason: 2024-2025Hunt StoryHave gotten frequent pictures of my deer “Shazam” throughout the season. Encountered him two times from same stand but was just out of range once and second time was too dark to see crosshairs well enough for ethical shot. Had been mainly nocturnal with trail cam pictures…

Hunter: John PhillipsPoints: 10 (5L, 5R)County: DoolySeason: 2024-2025Hunt StoryI had some history with this deer over the past few years. I am not sure where his summer range was at, but without fail he would show up every Nov. and set up camp for about 6 weeks. By the time he got to us last…

Figured I could use the seat…
