Always hurts when you find a buck dead and wasted. I was coming back from feeding and breaking ice so I was shredding around the field knocking some of the old weeds down and found him. My neighbor had photos of this one last year but we hadn’t seen him this season. Don’t know if he got shot from the road, or got gored. Bad deal but that’s just the way it is.

That sucks, begs the question is that a legal cull in an AR county?

Very nice buck. I found a dead one too this year. Probably wounded by a hunter in the national forest which borders my place. Shame to lose them but it happens.
I learned long ago you can't reason someone out of something they don't reason themselves into.

You would think that is a once in a lifetime buck, but oh so similar to the one Hudbone posted in the TP&W post on the other thread. How often would a buck like that develop???

Still a cool find. I would clean it up and make a nice euro mount.
