Wow! Congrats to the shooter. Would like to know what it scored.

That was amazing. Great hunt and video. Congrats!

that's a smoking freak

That's a HUGE buck.

Not to start anything but it looks like he would be close to not making antler restrictions.

I would love to see what a GW would say if a buck like that taped out at 12.5".

Great footage, liked seeing him thrash that tree. No way ever in a million years could I wait until the next morning to track him.

I couldn't sleep at all if I had to wait til morning, I'd chase him through the woods all night long!

What would happen if it didn't meet antler restrictions? Would it just not be eligible for any records?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't 6 points on one antler make AR even if he was under 13"

Anyone who saw that deer and for a second had to think about an antler restriction needs to be institutionalized....just saying

Nope

I'm sure the hunter would get fined and the TP&W would confiscate the buck.
Laws is laws.

Are you allowed to say you smoked him when you had to leave him overnight?

Huge deer.

If you have your fingers crossed

99% of game wardens in the country wouldn't write a ticket for that deer.

Once again you would be wrong Curly!

I agree with that!!!

Just couldn't help yourself huh Curly? And yes you did...

It would be very interesting. Obviously, it would become public very quickly wether he was checked in the field not. I would think that the TPWD would have to make some kind of special concession. The hell they would catch for confiscating that buck would never end.
