Thirty point DEER (see photos below)
Shot by an Amish boy with hand made long bow:
This buck was taken by a 14 year old Amish boy near Dalton WI .
He used a hand made long bow and made the killing shot by stalking
the huge buck using corn shocks for cover. The boy's family would not
allow him to pose with the trophy animal for pictures so a nearby
neighbor, Willie Flacid posed and is also acting as spokesman for the Amish boy.
According to Flacid, the Amish family has already received
several offers from outdoor sporting companies to purchase the
trophy. No dollar amount has been announced yet, but according
to Flacid, 'the amount of money being offered is enough that no
one would ever be hard up again.'
