    Cody Dean Leonard, 12, who lives in Davidson County, N.C., killed this 8-point buck in Montgomery County with his .243.
    Congratulations, young man! That's quite a nice buck you have there. Any chance we could get a story about it? I also noticed you made a perfect shot with your .243... well done indeed. You should be proud and I hope you will enjoy the venison.

    Jason Long of Person County, N.C., took this tall, 148-inch 8-pointer in full velvet on Sept. 17, using a crossbow.
    Oh man, what a buck! Not only is he huge, but we've all dreamed of getting a big one still in velvet. Are you going to have the velvet preserved or get synthetic velvet?
