Looks like the price of hunting in Menard County just went up.

I rough scored him at an even 150 on the 8 point frame before adding other extras. One 4th was an inch in length, other was not scoreable. He also had a boost on his brows one was 7 and the other 8 which you really can't see in the photos. I moved to Menard County in December of 1985 and when I saw this buck nearly about two months ago, I posted that I thought that I had seen the largest framed buck I had ever seen in Menard County not under HF. It is good to see that at age 67, my vision on a buck running at 125 yards is still pretty good. Now my hunters on this ranch are sure that they have seen a couple bigger...hope they have. Adios. Gary Well, the length on the brow tines explains it for me because I was only giving him 9" for both and coming up mid 40s as an 8! Great buck and I hope your hunters now see what can be grown and set up a bunch of 600lb protein feeders!
High fence, low fence, no fence, it really doesn't matter as long as you're hunting!

He looked good in velvet too this summer. He also added about 10" in tine length, 6-8" in mass, and the extra kickers from last year. I've had countless opportunities to take him with my bow for a couple years now. Congrats to Kurt, he's a hell of a buck.

What a great deer. We used to hunt the "figure 3" ranch, just west of Menard. Tons of deer, Turkey, swimming in the San Saba. Cheeseburgers at Pete's trading post near the fort. Great times. I traded Pete a 12' Sears game Fisher fiberglass boat that we hauled down from Dallas for two cheeseburgers and a 6- pack of beer. Seems we slammed into rocks in the river and busted the hull. I didn't feel like hauling it back home. I heard Pete died a few years ago. A little off topic, but that's what memories are for.
Life is too short, as is. Don't chance it. Don't text and drive.
