Casey Heine of Beaver Dam, Wis., shot this 35-point buck. BEAVER DAM, Wis. — Locals may have heard Casey Heine hollering through the marsh early in the morning of Sept. 29.
That's when he realized the size of his first big buck — a whopping 35-pointer — he had shot with a bow and arrow just outside of Beaver Dam.
"It's sure going to be hard to beat!" Heine said.
He could barely stand the mosquitoes at 4:30 p.m. on Sept. 28 out in the field. But nearly two hours later, while he waited for a doe and fawn to come out of some brush, he heard something in the bean field. Then two deer ran along the line fence.
"I knew it was a nice buck," said Heine, 22, of Beaver Dam, about the 35-pointer. "However, I only glanced at the horns once or twice while it was running toward me."
Heine said he had no idea what the big buck, and a 4-point buck, were running from. Nonetheless, they went behind his hunting stand.
I understand well about culling; however; I would have like to seen him let go. Just personal opinion.
