Whitetail Buck of a Lifetime

It's been so cool to see all the mule deer bucks posted here: https://www.hunttalk.com/threads/mule-deer-buck-of-a-lifetime.330091/ I thought it would be cool to see a similar thread for whitetails. My best, 171".

Let’s do it with elk and make people lose sleep at night thinking about their hunts coming up.

I think he was around 325”

I have 4 over 370, none over 380. You need a few categories higher as there's not comparing a 370 to a 400+

It’s like stopping mule deer at 180+ or whitetail at 160+

So the bull that stretched the last tape for me went 347. I actually don’t even have any in the field photos with him. I was in a big buck and bull contest that year were the only rule was you had to draw the tag. I had gone the distance first guy to kill a bull and beat out some guys with killer Arizona/Nevada elk tags. Then comes the last day of 4 th season otc Colorado and one of the guys wife’s whacks a 362” giant. Another kinda neat thing about this particular bull is @antlerradar stops by to say hi a few weeks ago sees the bull hanging and goes huh that’s were he ended up. You should have seen him the year before he was a bit bigger

I went early

First big game animal I ever killed on my first hunt, second day and still my best elk to date. Killed another one slightly smaller my second season in the same spot. Took a long time to figure out what I was actually doing before I killed another bull. Went on the 12 year bull drought before getting 3 in the last two years. Maybe some day I’ll beat him but being a brown=down elk hunter can make that a challenge.

 

[Lostinthewoods]

I posted a 80” mule deer. I needed to get at least one post out where I didn’t fully look like a dink killer.

Guy who has killed two spikes and lots of dink bucks

By far the biggest bull I've ever killed. 11.5 years old, killed in november and still has a bit of velvet on it. Very unsymetrical. ~315" gross. Has 30+ points of deductions. @jtm307 was with me and he killed a bull about an hour before I killed this one. We saw a mountain lion earlier in the day and got some good pics. One of the best days I've had of hunting.

 

[MTLabrador]

My best is in the 301-340 category, and a lot closer to 301. Dark timber 6 points get my blood pumping…

I’ve been pretty lucky and have killed quite a few elk. This one is one of my favorites.we busted our asses killed him second from last day in an absolute shit hole. About 20 min after this picture was taken he only had one main beam as I decided I wasn’t worth trying break him down in a rock face and gave him the boot and when he stopped rolling he was missing a main beam. Ow ya Oregon rosie
