Well certainly if that's correct than everything I've just said is worthless.

Right off interwebs.. sure some may be private but all good bucks.. they’re not Sasquatch. And they do come into public

I think zero of those bucks are the caliber of buck these guys are talking about.
Lord knows I am not a picky hunter by any stretch, but even I don’t think any of those are “big”.

You ever seen a big mule deer?

A few years back @Greenhorn predicted what social media influencer posts about killing big deer in Montana would look like:

Have you seen it? Could it be legit? Ha.

Have you guys seen it? Could it be legit? Having been secretly kept under the radar to await the most strategic social media blast. Apparently now is the time. Such a shame to quickly overshadow the recent P&Y world record taken by the mullet guy and the even-newer black ovis velvet...

All 3 of those mule deer are little
Around 2013, even though it was already in serious decline, I would pass dozens of deer like that in a season. Lucky to find one now.

You can’t tell from the huge bodies and large neck roasts, but those are all 30” tall bucks.
I’m seriously curious how you support your perspective.
When did you start hunting in Montana?
How much have you hunted it?
Have you ever hunted mule deer in any other state, particularly Colorado, Wyoming, Idaho, Utah or Arizona?

I killed the only 4x4 mule deer I saw on public land all season this year on September 6. It was a great day of hunting and I was pumped even though my smallest mule deer ever. I thought for a brief moment “you might regret this later”. But I never did.

Limit tags or none of it works. Washington and Oregon never limited tags and run general seasons in October that are all dog sh*t. Was probably decent about a few million residents ago but now we have laser rangefinders with ballistic programs, 6.5 Woundmores, PRCs, RUMs and Ultra Mags that shoot a mile and Arctic Cats to chase down anything we see. Long story short, we've got better tools for killing. Plus I can take Mtn Ops and hunt all day comfortably in my Kuiu kit to keep my temps regulated.
Killing deer in October with a rifle is not hard. It's just not as easy as having one try to dry hump your suppressor in November. No control over the number of tags = no control over the number of tags filled. Graph it and pivot table it all you want but it's pretty simple even for a below average public school student.

If you'd like to experience this for yourself, have a couple kids.
