Not to start anything but it looks like he would be close to not making antler restrictions.

I would love to see what a GW would say if a buck like that taped out at 12.5".

Great footage, liked seeing him thrash that tree. No way ever in a million years could I wait until the next morning to track him.

What would happen if it didn't meet antler restrictions? Would it just not be eligible for any records?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't 6 points on one antler make AR even if he was under 13"

I'm sure the hunter would get fined and the TP&W would confiscate the buck.

99% of game wardens in the country wouldn't write a ticket for that deer.

It would be very interesting. Obviously, it would become public very quickly wether he was checked in the field not. I would think that the TPWD would have to make some kind of special concession. The hell they would catch for confiscating that buck would never end.
