This guy would show up at the feeder below the house about 15 minutes after dark every night... Never seen him in the day.

Put the spotlight on him (from the back porch) and he would just stand there looking around.





Definitely the biggest buck I have ever seen in person.

Looks like he dwarfs that youngster behind him both in body & of course rack. Very nice deer! Hope that you all get a chance to take him out this year.

I was there, and yes he was that big (and free range). He would have given Milo Hanson buck fever.

The only buck I've seen even close to this guy was a mid-180's double drop 12 pointer I saw on the Waggoner Ranch in Baylor County 2 years ago.

Well I hope you get him and Texas can claim the World record typical whitetail. Wow.

The largest NT I ever saw is on my wall, 18 points, 188 6/8 B&C. Low fence free range
The largest Typical I ever saw is on my wall, 11 points 178 gross, 168 7/8 net. Low fence free range

I wish... if there was some way to encourage him to leave the game preserve I would have a chance.

Biggest buck I ever saw was on the LBJ ranch near Fredericksburg. Was behind the high fence. 14 pointer, very tall and very wide and could care less we were looking at him. Biggest buck I have ever seen on my ranch down by Palestine Texas was a 12 pointer with about 12" G2's, maybe a 20+" inside spread and we named him Big Moe. He walked into a food plot and the other eight bucks all hauled it out of there. This was in August before the season, still in velvet and we have never seen him again, but he was scary big.

in dimmit county. I was leaving the blind about 9:15 and as I
turned onto the road I was watching ,there he was running in the
opposite direction down the road, points everywhere and huge
body. It pays to stay late. Still makes me sick. No chance on
score estimating but he was a giant.

Stickers @ Nooner ranch in Hondo....Just unbelievable

I know exactly what you mean!! The most impressive antlers I've ever put my hands on were from an 8-pointer. They were sheds and scored right at 175 with a 16" spread credit (YES!! 175....I know that's hard to believe for an 8 pointer). The sheds felt like they weighed about 3-4 pounds each.....8" bases.....15" G-2's......12" G-3's.....and beams pushing close to 30". AMAZING antlers!!

He was on a high fenced ranch in DeWitt county.....no one ever killed that deer. They would see him every summer but as soon as the velvet was off, he became a ghost. The sheds were from him at 5.5 years old....and the last time they saw him, that I know of, was at 8.5 years old.

my dream deer right there!!!! 175 8 pt...

Me and you both man.....I'd take that deer over any 220" non-typical. He was truly amazing.

In a pen....over 300"

In the wild.....200"+/- 14 point. He was a typical 10 with big Muley forks on his 2s and 3s.

I saw a Mulie in Colorado that was big enough that I could fit completely inside his rack. In fact, I did fit completely inside his rack. He was a free ranging buck but was a resident in the Royal Gorge State Park so he was extremely tame. I saw a group of deer by the road so I stopped to take some pics. He was so tame that he walked up to me expecting to be fed. I didn't have anything so I stripped some Oak leaves off a tree and held them out. As he ate them out of my hand, his rack completely surrounded me. Actually, it was kind of uncomfortable to be in that position. Now I don't even remember how many points he had but I'm sure I have some pics buried in a box somewhere at home.

Tame deer may not count but he was definitely a big one.

I saw about a 175 or so on matador WMA it was prolly 19 inches wide with one drop tine he was a bad [censored] deer. would have loved to get him but he was about 10' in front of my uncles truck when were down in a valley looking up at it. It was heartbraeking to watch him go!

The biggest deer I've ever seen was in New Mexico. I was at a place called San Francisco hot springs walking back to the truck right before dark. I spotted a small WT buck bedded down on the other ridge. I decided to see how close I could get and started walking over there. I got about 200 yds from him when he jumped and ran. He was just a small 6 point. So I started to walk back to the trail I was on. That's when I heard a few more take off to my left. When I looked up I saw the widest set of antlers as he topped the ridge.

I will bet one of those is hangin in my buddies garage. 160's if I remember correctly. LonestarCobra knows the story.

1995 in Nacogdoches, Tx. I grew up in Corpus Christi and hunted Freer and South texas all my life, so I have seen some great deer. The buck I saw that December morning on my way to hunt ducks at Lake Nac scared me. We were driving to our spot at around 5:15 am when we spotted something on the side of the road. We saw it was a buck, and he looked right at us from about 30 yards away. He was a typical 12 pt with about 12 inch G2's and he was at least 6 inches outside his ears. He gave us that much time to look at him. I Sh&t you not, he had G5's that were 5 inches long. I hunted ducks before class that whole week, but never saw him again. I tried to talk to the land owner to ask him about hunting his property. After a few choice words about being on his property, we discontinued negotiations.

The largest buck I ever saw was on the side of the road feeding in a field about 50 miles outside of Corpus Christi. This was around 1976. He was a non-typical but I was to small to know how to score him. What I do know is my dad stop the RV and we watched him out the window. Another guy pulled in behind us and got out his truck to take a good luck. That deer just stood there while my dad and the guy in the truck behind us marveled at his size. The look in there eyes told the entire story. You would have thought they were looking at big foot. After about 3 minutes that buck trotted to the woods. My dad just kept mumbling about what he had just seen. I was around 12 and remember his antlers looked like a Christmas tree. My dad still talks about that buck today and he is 83.

I actually seen milo Hanson world record mount up at the Novi expo center near Detroit Mi. it was 213 5/8 it was huge. but the largest live deer I seen was a 12 pointer while bow hunting in the thumb area of Michigan. hunted 5 yrs for this deer and a 12 year old boy end up getting it on a youth hunt. which made me feel better that is was a youngster.

saw a monster 8 years ago, jumped the fence just before i was going to shoot. then shot a 141" 10 point that stayed on my side. the monster looked every bit of twice the buck i killed. never saw him again, the owner died and the kids wouldnt lease the place to us anymore...

I was leaving a deer lease in Coleman county one morning and saw my lease owner on his front porch so I stopped and chatted for a bit. Then I hopped in the truck and pulled out of the driveway headed home and what did I see standing 10 ft on the other side of the fence where I could hunt.. A huge non-typical standing about 2 - 2 1/2 feet above his head with mass like no other. I stopped he looked at me and I was praying he would go left and get back on our side so I could jump the fence and take a legal shot of course. But no he ran right and I was just in awwwwwwwwwww. His horns were so heavy it mad his head bounce down when he ran. It had to score in the 170's. Very nice deer. Havent heard of anyone shooting it yet and thats been 8-9 years ago.

Man that sucks.. not the 141 class deer but not getting the lease. My Dad lost a 630 acre lease in Santa Anna that he had hunted for free for 13 years. All the man asked was if my Dad would stop and have coffee with him. The man passed away and the brother and kids wouldnt let anyone on the place. Then they sold it. Some people

Biggest typical frame I have ever seen is in the 190's
