Sneak Peak of Dream Bucks III
Dream Bucks III — Midwest Monster is the third image in the Dream Bucks series, which features some of the world’s
most impressive whitetails.
It follows Dream Bucks I — Hole in the Horn Buck and Dream Bucks II — The Missing Trophy. Featured in Dream Bucks III is the huge, non-typical buck taken by Kyle Simmons on October 16, 2008 in Eastern Iowa. This buck was Kyle’s first deer with a bow and was featured on the January 2009 cover of North American Whitetail magazine.
Scoring 275 5/8, it is our new Iowa state record archery nontypical, and the third largest nontypical whitetail in the
world ever taken by bow and arrow.
New elk painting, Evening Solitude released
“The original inspiration for this painting occurred on a February reference trip in the Rockies. It was very cold and we’d been exploring the high country, looking for painting ideas and gathering reference material all day. As dusk
approached it started snowing again. I don’t recall being able to hear any sound. The landscape was hauntingly
beautiful. I captured as much as I could until it finally got too dark. On their way down I pondered what I’d
experienced. There seemed to be many different ways to try to capture the scene in a painting. The three bulls moving silently through the landscape seemed to enhance the feeling of tranquility, leading to the piece you see here.” – Larry Zach
