For those of you who entered in for the 200 limited entry hunting permits at the Western Hunting and Conservation Expo last week, the winners are now posted. Are you a lucky winner? I can tell you one thing, I came away empty handed. I was hoping for the Henry’s deer tag and the Pahvant elk tag, along with the rest of the world.
To see the full list of results click the link below. I can’t believe some of the people I recognize who drew some of these tags. Congratulations.

The huge typical whitetail deer taken in Ohio last year has now been officially scored. Taken by Justin Metzner with a compound bow, the 12-point typical has an official score of 196 6/8 net.
The Metzner Buck was scored by Rick Busse an official scorer for Pope and Young, and Boone and Crockett; and Randy Clark, an official scorer for Ohio Big Bucks. The deer scored at 196 6/8 which would position it to be the second largest deer harvest with a compound bow in Ohio; the fifth largest typical deer taken in the world in the Pope and Young record book; and Buckmaster’s seventh all time typical white-tailed deer harvested with a compound bow.
