Or perhaps I just missed it. Something for others to shoot for (pun intended) in the natural progression of our sport? SCI World Record

I doubt you will get a similar reaction that you did in your other thread.

Because it’s nothing new. People have been creating deer like that for some time. This one just happens to be a bit bigger.

SCI World RecordTo each his own but to me I'd rather kill a 140" native deer off my place. I simply think these deer like this one have become freaks and are rather ugly. All my opinion and nothing more because I know some love it.
High fence, low fence, no fence, it really doesn't matter as long as you're hunting!

When did killing stuff become a sport? Hunting isn’t a sport, fact someone would refer to it as such, shows they truly only consider it a grip and grin photo experience. Sorry but killing things for the sport of it is last reason you hunt... if a reason at all.
Not sure how a deer defines ones hunting experience. Not sure why someone would care about how someone else hunted, why they hunted, where they hunted and how the spent their time hunting.

That sure seems to be one of most talked about topics here and sure generates lots of opinions and malcontent.
I doubt people here are hunting for subsistence.

All my opinion and nothing more because I know some love it. I totally agree, though my ranch we usually get a couple pretty nice 120's & 130's each fall. To see a high fenced genetically engineered freak of nature whitetail does absolutely nothing for me. I've seen where the experiment is expanding to Mule deer and Fallow deer now. What's next non-typical Axis deer and Elk. I just don't get it, though many here do! When they score these freaks of nature, I like them to include how much it cost to harvest the animal as well! My apologies for my rant, I'm off my soap box!
Distance is not an issue, but the wind can make it interesting!

It's what I've been preaching here for a long time!....."Antler restrictions work!"
Thursday at 12:45 PM #33 Once i learned that i didn't "NEED" to kill something, and that if i did kill something all the fun stopped and work began, i was a much better hunter.

A nice clean 8 is my favorite.
Sometimes it's hard being me! But somebody has to do it.
