Folks, Meet 14-year-old Noble County hunter, Kyle Bolen, and his giant twenty point monster. It was taken while getting a drink in a pond.
Here is a picture took Sept 1st.
I talked with Kyle and his parents several times over the past week. No one has contacted them other than me and another writer, and no offers have been made.
I hear ya.....I know where the picture I posted came from though...Greg, Kyle didn't remember who he talked to. He is so excited over it I can imagine it's all a blur. It could have been the Field and Stream blogger that had Kyle's photo in his blog. I can tell you that mom, dad, and Kyle all seem to be real salt of the earth people.
I wrote my story for Indiana Outdoor News and it should be in the January issue. I also write for Indiana Game & Fish and they work six months out. (The deadline for my May article was the 5th of December.) So, unless IGF has a shorter lead time on other parts of the magazine, it won't be out until May or so. (Assuming someone else wrote the story for them.)
In the mean time, I heard a story that the new state record buck may have just been harvested right here in Morgan County. But knowing how stories go, it might just be another rural legend...
Another story is a buck was just hit by a vehicle near Silver Lake that has twelve inch drop tines and eighteen inch G2s... anybody got a lead on that one?
It does seem like these 2 go hand in hand!Anytime I hear of someone killing a monster whitetail it is always followed by Cabella's offering them a poop load of money for it.
RNM...I see what you did there.
