Haven't had it in years but never spit any out. I am a sucker for happy endings and strapped cowboys.

Lol, not even close, no HF's with 20miles, but way to look like a donkey again

Great Deer, but there was/is a high fence ranch on Hwy 276 between poetry and quinlan, used to be called Cullens Ranch. They had some great deer out there. It was sold a few years back and is not being used for hunting. I have seen some great "wild" deer off 1565, south of 276. The river bottom does hold some very big deer. Congrats on the harvest. Just my 2 cents.

Nothing to tell on an open forum. There is a reason you have to becareful posting big deer on public forums...shinning example right here. That is all.

Many on here wouldn't believe the caliber of deer in certain parts of north Texas. And for some, I think they just prefer to believe there are no big free range deer...the poor misguided fools

That is all. doesn't really matter when it's all over Facebook. For the sake of members who may hunt in the area, we will conclude it is a random deer that escaped from a HF place that releases breeder bucks. You can tell by it's droppy ears and brownish color.

Not TX genetics. Well if you want to get technical nothing north of king is since the only per native herd in the US is the king. That's a native NTX deer, get over you hating and your cheap shots you take on ever deer over 160, its getting old Never any 200" deer shot north of there at the hag, or grayson or west of there on other COE guess all those where pen raised and released also.

Some of the biggest free range deer killed each year in Texas are in Poetry, most just don't hear about them. As mentioned by McKinney, huge bucks roaming the Sabine River bottoms and there are still lots of big deer on what was once the Cullen Ranch. Huffines Group bought the ranch and not sure what it goes by now. Heard hunting was only allowed by family and friends. Have some buddies that still don't believe this deer to have been killed in Rockwall Co. but the guys at Native and my taxidermist who know him personally claim it to be true. Great deer!
