Darn shame you didn't find him in your sights but you know which farm to hunt next season.

Glad you at least found the skull before the horns were chewed up.

Still a nice buck, hopefully he died of old age, after spreading some serious genes around.

No history with this buck.....one of our farms we get to a few times a year. It's a little out of the way.

Did you find the jaw to age him?

Re: Found a giant. - 01/12/15 03:17 PM

Stud and hopefully spawned a bunch of buck babies

Re: Found a giant. - 01/12/15 03:26 PM

Wow, looks like that buck passed not too long ago. Any evidence of him being shot?

A little bit of peroxide and soap water and you've got your self a heck of a euro mount!

looks like a possible rut gore victim
or a bow hunt gone wrong to me
looks like ya found it just about the same time as the rodents
and rodents eat antlers really quickly from what I saw inside a high fence
within 30 days or less they start the gnawing
and if you don't mind me asking where are the 2 additional points on that 16
backside of the bases maybe ?

I don't think I know a hunter that would pass on him on free range property
he was a whopper for sure up

Great buck and you just know he spread those genes around before he met his demise.
