5 Toms and a nice 3.5 year old 8. No High Brows. Going to give it another 1/2 hour. I am beginning to think he is more than just lucky. He might have the smart gene.

Go ahead and give it 7 more hours

I used to always think that they were lucky...but nothing can be lucky that many times

Good luck

That deer is a hoss, good luck getting him.

maybe tonight he will show. good luck buddy

I know he will because I am not there this evening. lol We have two tournaments on Lake Fork this weekend.

They don't get to be that big by being stupid. He is a stud of a buck.

I would have cancelled tournament and stayed there that is a brute

i hope you nail him soon.

Good Luck...

Today was the day! My hunting bud Kevin got him this morning at 7:15am. He is scoring him now. A little over 20" wide, 24" main beam and 10" G-2 and G-3
Brows are 6". Said he has a bullet hole through his G-2, road hunter most likely. No one on our lease has fired a shot at him.

Awesome!!! Can't wait to see pictures. Sucks you didn't get him, but at least your buddy did

Bitter-sweet?

WOW. It has been fun following these stories and not how I would have thought it would turn out!
Congrats to your buddy. Now what?

I guess I have nothing to keep me hunting in TX. I will just have to go back up to KS and work on filling my tag up there.

Do you have any pictures of this buck?

Score 165 6/8th

man that is a stud, what part of the country are ya'll in

Good buck, congrats to your friend.

That hole in the horn reminds me of a friend that shot his biggest buck in the horns with his first shot, he finally agreed he hit exactly where he was looking, a bit of buck feaver had set in.

Have any prospects up there or just going to wing it?

congrats to your buddy i know it sucks that u didnt get him and cant wait to see pics

I will get some pics from Kevin later on. We are in Palo Pinto county. No particular buck in KS, it will be cold and I will drop an arrow on the first one that trips my trigger 130" plus.

Good Hunting Everyone

Where in KS you hunting?

Well at least someone on your place got him. But how the heck do you get a bullet hole in an antler. A bullet would just completely knock the antler off. I'm curious to see the pictures.

P.S. Great thread, enjoyed following it.

Mostly about 30 miles E and S of Topeka, KS. Glad you guys enjoyed the thread and I am glad one of us scored on him.

Talk was out in the community, he had been spotted and we were really concerned he might fall victim to a poaching road hunter.

I will post pictures when I get some sent to me. Kevin is on his way to taxidermist.

Pictures?
