In his own words: Rocky LaGrone's 165-inch Claiborne County buck
New York's Rocky LaGrone has hunted in Claiborne County's Six Forks for a decade, and the annual pilgrimage finally paid off Jan. 14 with this trophy. The damp of the January morning (on Jan. 14) drove straight to the bone and clung like steel traps, much colder than the dry snow and sub-freezing temperatures I’d left behind near Saratoga Springs, N.Y., the day before.

155-inch buck with double main beam killed in Amite County
Louisiana's Wayne McAndrew killed this deer Jan. 13, after leasing a 450-acre Amite County tract just before the hunting season began. Wayne McAndrew stumbled across a piece of Amite County property available for lease in August 2009, and jumped at the chance to start his own club. While the tract of land only encompassed 450 acre, McAndrew soon knew he had made the right decision. “The first or second week of bow season, my buddy (Brad Balado) actually got a picture way on the other side of the lease of this buck,” the Louisiana hunter said. “Our jaws dropped when we saw the picture.”

Mahannah produces trophy buck
Waveland's Eddie Peterson knocked this 169 5/8-inch buck down Dec. 16 after an unknown hunter directed him to Eddie Peterson had made the drive from Waveland to Mahanna Wildlife Management Area for a draw hunt, but hadn’t had much luck until they ran across another hunter who had killed a pretty nice deer. “He didn’t tell us, ‘Go here,’ but he told us a general area to go to,” Peterson said. So during the mid-day lull on Dec. 16, the hunter and his buddies eased in to find stand sites.
