27 Points. 225 Inches. 99 Hours. One Emotional Recovery. The Dakota Pool Buck

A hunt Dakota Pool will never forget. In this episode of Camp Broadside, Dakota tells the full story behind his absolute giant — a 27 point buck scoring 225 2/8” taken with a bow after one of the most emotional and stressful recoveries imaginable. After the shot, the buck stayed alive far longer than expected and the recovery turned into a nearly 99 hour ordeal involving: Multiple drone teams Constant communication with the game warden Sleepless nights and emotional highs and lows Fear of losing the deer completely And even concerns someone else might try to recover the buck before him With permission from the game warden to continue pursuing the deer, Dakota eventually located the buck standing in a pond and made the difficult decision to put another arrow in him to end it ethically. This episode isn’t just about a giant set of antlers. It’s about faith, responsibility, emotions, pressure, and what hunters go through behind the scenes that nobody sees on social media. Dakota stayed thankful to God through the entire process, even while carrying the weight of watching such an incredible animal suffer longer than he ever wanted. This one is raw, real, and unforgettable. 🎙️ Camp Broadside Podcast “Blood Trails & Buck Tales — Every Hunt Is A Story.” Presented by Broadside Camo Systems BLEND BETTER.
