I found this in the late 60's...We had 248 ac. in Argyle tx. I had only seen 1 deer my whole life there...I found the whole deer...Dad told me not to tell anyone, cause the whole world would be coming over our fence and hunt... Its 26in inside width...not sure on main beams... 7in around base... He was a fine buck at one point...

Mr. Redchevy....As far as your post, I trust that your not saying that I would lie about the size of these antlers... Im sure that your not, but I will not take a pic with yard stick, just for you...But to help easy your mind about the width of them...The pic is in front a a wooden fence...I built the fence, it 1x6 treated pine..(5 1/2 in. each board)...I think if you count the boards and the corner post (4x4), you can see the size of them...Do some adding, but don't insinuate that Im not telling the truth...I would not take kindly to that !!!

A yard stick would be great....counting boards at a different distance does not help.
The perspective is difficult to grasp...the bases don't look like they are 5 inches much less 7.
Same thing happens to fish depending on how far they are held out. It is difficult to grasp 3 dimensions in a photo.

Put a yard stick in the horns take a pic where you can see the numbers and lets see it again please. Nobody suggested anything. All he asked was to add a yardstick to the pic so we could judge for ourself.

The Antlers, are what they are...At 61, born in Texas, I learned a long time ago, not to let a bullies bother me...I have taught my children to stand up to bullies, along with my grand kids (9 of them)...Can I put a measuring stick across them, yes. Will I, NO...I didnt kill the buck, I found it...Like it or not, it is what it is...
I took a look at Mr redchvvvv other post. Most of them, he is always wanting to start something...Maybe that make him fill Bigger or smarter... Im not sure, what his deal is...
Take it or leave it, the old buck was a monster...

Neat story! To bad you never saw any live on the hoof, if the tract is still in tact, I bet there's a few roaming around! Do you ever cruise by the old property?
