Bass Pro Shops offers $5,000 reward for return of white-tail mount
Bass Pro Shops is offering a $5,000 gift card for information leading to the return of a record-setting whitetail taken by a 16-year-old in Iowa in 2003, and the arrest and conviction of the persons who stole the mount in 2004.
The fall of 2003 was 16-year old Brian Andrews' first year of bowhunting. He didn't own a bow, so he borrowed some outdated archery gear from his sister’s boyfriend and started practicing. On Nov. 13, after numerous unsuccessful hunts, Brian arrowed a 26-point record-breaking whitetail in Buchanan County, Iowa. The enormous buck B&C net scored 253 1/8, making it the non-typical state record and the world’s No. 2 bow-taken whitetail that year.
On June 18, 2004, Brian’s buck was stolen from the Andrews home.
