Big Buck

Local hunt paid off

Rural Cloquet resident Trish King shot this massive buck Nov. 3, on the first day of firearms season. The eight-plus-point buck weighed in at 220 pounds at Fisherman's Corner, and King had to stand on three pallets to be able to touch its antlers. "It was the first time in more than 25 years that I haven't gone up north to hunt and it paid off big time," King told the Pine Knot News.
