I wasn't the lucky hunter, but just as proud of him as he came off our place. My brother got this buck on an early morning sit on the 2nd.

9pt with an abnormal point at the base. We had never seen the deer before this year until he was shot, however after we pulled camera chips he had been hitting this feeder every couple of days for a couple weeks.










I have live and dressed weights and score, but I'll give it a few for anyone who wants to guess. He is the new record for our ranch in both score and weight. We are proud as heck. My brother is a member here as well but doesn't do the picture thing, Im sure he will tell whatever of the story he wants. Really excited to get him! cheers

Nice!


To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first and call whatever you hit the target.

Thanks all! Here are his measurements.

He weighed 180 lbs live, and between 145 and 150 dressed our scale goes in 5 lb increments.
Scored 145 5/8ths had a inside spread of 19 6/8ths.

He is the largest score by a margin of 3 inches and largest on weight by 7 lbs. We have him guessed at 5-6 years old. Did some digging through pictures and we are not really sure if we have seen him in years past or not. I have a deer in my mind he could have been, but nothing definite.

Thanks Don, I know he is little more than a cull to some places but a true monster in our eyes. Hope we can do better in the future, but wont turn down anything like him.
