Next time you decide to take your wife hunting with you, be sure that you are willing to accept the consequences. On Sunday Nov. 6, 2005, Amy Lien of Fargo, North Dakota was hunting in northern Minnesota when she anchored this wide-spreading 11-point brute with her Remington .243. According to her husband, John, Amy grew up in a non-hunting family. Seeing how obsessed John has always been with whitetail hunting, however, Amy slowly started getting into sharing the adventure with her husband. 2005 marked only her third year of chasing deer, and this dandy whitetail was only her second buck. "This is actually the first animal she has shot while being alone without me coaching her or helping her," John said. "And she shot this guy at 300 yards! That's what I get for teaching her how to shoot and allowing her to hunt out of a heated stand that morning. And now that she has a buck that is bigger than anything I have on the wall, I guess I'll have to go up on my guide fees!"
