This nice eight point was killed by Herbert Harper of Hot Coffee, MS in Hot
Coffee on December 30, 2009 at approximately 4:00.

Kevin Harper said, "The deer ran across the field about 220 yards away from Herbert as he was just getting in shooting house to get heater lit.  He went out of the field and in about 2 mins 12 turkey came out where the buck went in.  He quickly put his gun thinking it might have been the buck and then realizing it was turkey got discouraged but decided to check out the turkey with his scope.  He then spotted the buck standing behind the turkey quartering to him.  He took careful and then shot.  I arrived (I am his son Kevin) shortly there after and we went straight to the 8 point.  Good thing b/c he did not bleed a drop and it was raining on top of that.  17.5 inside spread 10 to 11 inch back tines and plenty massive.  Pop is 68 years old and has been hunting over 50 years and although he has taken many a white-tail and some nice bucks but this is his best buck yet.
