Trophy Room: The Benoit Bucks

Lane Benoit with another last minute whopper buck. Note that his rifle does not have a scope. Lane was the last of the Benoits to give up his peep sight. But, in the past couple of years he has started using a scope.

L to R: Lanny Benoit, Landon Benoit, Dick Duffy, Shane Benoit & Lane Benoit with the results of a hunt in Ontario.
