Travis Howie of Mobile AL became our 4th hunter in a row under 30 years old to claim our Big Buck of the Year award.  Travis will be adding this fine 8 pointer to his trophy room beside the big 10 pointer he took last year.  Travis saw 6 mature bucks one morning last January.

Nathan Beddingfield made it two years in a row for the Beddingfield Brothers.  Nathan's 210 pound giant came on opening morning of gun season.  Our mature bucks averaged 185 pounds this year but Nathan's is our heaviest ever.  Congratulations to Nathan for another outstanding Southern Pines Buck.

Twenty year old Taylor Beddingfield became our 4^th new member in the  last six years to harvest our club’s big buck of the year.  Taylor’s trophy was taken on the last Sunday evening of the season.  Taylor, a very talented and dedicated hunter had seen this deer earlier in the season running with a big 10 pointer.  Taylor was our youngest member ever to win our big buck award.  We know for sure this will not be Taylor's last great buck.

Rookie member Kyle Reeves, one or our avid bow hunters took a day off from archery hunting and harvested this nice buck with a rifle from a stand overlooking some scrapes.  As Kyle was coming down from his stand, a larger buck also showed up.  Good job, Kyle.
