According to records of Texas Big Game Awards website; this deer I harvested on 10/13/23 is the new record for Parker County. He scored 194 2/8 Gross/183 Total Net. He qualifies for both Boone & Crockett and Pope & Young. This is my first whitetail deer; my first deer in Texas; and first deer harvested on my ranch. Never stop dreaming! Set-up: Maverick Blind elevated 4 foot on a platform over tank/pond on one side; feeder on the other (highly recommend the peanut butter corn). Equipment: Xpedition Compound Bow (bought used for $300) @ 55 lbs. (I’m getting old) CBE Illuminated Sight Gold Tip 340 Arrows with Muzzy Broadheads

Welcome to the forum and congratulations on one heck of a great bow buck. Especially for your first and on your own place also.

WELL DONE!!!!!! As a fellow land owner, I know you didn’t just haphazardly get up in a stand and get a deer of that caliber. Many hours of work and $$$$ getting things to put you in that position. What a buck, I would have had trouble controlling my nerves with a buck of that size. Congratulations

What a buck, I would have had trouble controlling my nerves with a buck of that size. Congratulations Thank you. Funny how when you love something, it’s never a chore. No matter how hard you work at it. But, you’re right. Spent days on my backhoe making the tank; hours constructing a tornado proof platform and mowing; 300# automatic feeder purchase, and about 30 bags of corn (been feeding since Aug. 30th); days on the guzzler set up (for when tank goes dry). The water supply is what brought them in. Add in the diesel, archery equipment, hours with binoculars & practice. The gratification is always greater when you put in the work.

Pretty special being on your own place
