How did you come across that top one? Looks like it had been out in the weather for a while.
The early bird might get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.

I just want to state that I'm not bashing it at all! He could have taken it last season and had it out in their shed out back. It just looks weathered and I was curious.

I believe I said something along the lines of northern deer will fool you after some 150's were thrown out.

If it is....stx going to be eating some waffles....I missed it by 2 " I didnt think it looked 170 but I didnt argue either. Those deer are way different than our little deer. You guys will eat it when I find him dead. Apprently some kid shot him and didn't find him. Found this guy dead 200 yards from my stand, I was 110% sure I missed him during youth season. I still think he died another way, maybe EHD but I put a tag on him so I can keep the antlers. EDIT: I actually saw his buddy tonight on the way home, his left side is atleast 70" and all that's left on his right side is a little nub. As a 4pt side that's HUGE. If that's 70" the right side on the other buck "pot field buck" has to be 75"-85" then his left side has to be the same 75"-85" so 160s-170s just with antlers then 170s-180s with spread.
