Kentucky Velvet Buck

Took my best best buck ever opening season Kentucky. Mainframe 8 point that scored 177.
I can’t wait to get this one back from the taxidermist to put on the wall.

A whole lot of awesomeness right there. Big CONGRATS!

Great deer, I have seen some absolute monsters in Kentucky. Congratulations.

That's one hell of an 8 pt.

Congratulations!

Fantastic 8 Point! Congratulations!

Hell of a great 8 point.

Congrats

Great deer!

Absolutely superb!

What a stud of an 8! Congrats

8's just don't get any bigger or prettier than that buck! Outstanding

What an awesome trophy! Congratulations!

That's a fine buck. Taking one in velvet truly is rare!

Well done!

Congrats, that's an impressive deer!

Heck of an 8pt. Congrats

This might be the 8 that a lot of people are talking about around here in Kentucky. what an amazing 8 point.
Tell us the story, would really enjoy hearing about it.
and one more time...CONGRATS!!

Wow is all I can say. Congrats.

Beautiful animal, Sir

Absolute giant, if you need a good freeze dry guy to preserve that velvet look at TNT in Ingram.

Congrats that is an impressive 8pt, one such as most of us have never seen in person. biggest one I have seen scored 167 and I thought he was huge

to put this beast in perspective, the biggest true 8pt ever officiscored in Kentucky is 173 3/8. velvet score or not 177 puts this deer in very impressive company. and its in a state that has a history of world class 8 pts.
just absolutely amazing. I can't stop looking at the pictures lol

Just WOW! Heck of an 8. I love big 8s and in velvet this is just awesome. Congrats!
Now come back and give us some story, details, outfitter?

Thank you for sharing and making our day

little know fact, Kentucky reports they most B&C deer per square mile of any state in the country. The habitat along the Ohio, all the way from Appalachia to land between the lakes is just phenomenal. Even the areas around horse country that have been left unspoiled produce some studs. What part of the state was this taken in? From looking at the foliage its tough to tell but I've venture a guess of close to the Ohio state line?

Wow, amazing buck!!!

Absolutely right for sure

a 150" 8 point is a big, big deer.
A 160" 8 is a giant and very, very few of that class are killed every year in TX.....just a handful.
An 8 breaking 170" is RIDICULOUS!!!

Congratulations! That is an awesome buck!

Ho! Lee! Mackerel! Congrats!

If I shot that, I would be done hunting. I'd hang it up.

I'm also delusional. However, I could go a REAL long time without shooting another deer; like nearly an entire year.

177" 8 point is crazy ! Wow congratulations !

Jealous........love big 8's......Congrats on a world class buck, especially with a bow!

WOW!!! Buck of a life time congratulations!!

Wow. I keep looking at the pics too. Wow. Congratulations!!!

Several guys in the state are saying this buck unofficially is the largest mainframe buck to be killed in the state of Kentucky. It could possibly rank top 5 archery in the U.S. I have been overwhelmed with the amount of phone calls and interviews about the buck.

Thanks for all the great comments.
