Whitetail Buck of a Lifetime

[Mallardsx2]

My Illinois muzzleloader deer.


My wife’s Illinois bow kill.


My kids, Georgia rifle kill from last year. (She wanted this specific deer so bad and I had passed shots on this buck at least 3 times haha)

 

[Hunting Wife]

Still my nicest whitetail, but I don’t think he actually scores that well. His tines aren’t very long. I think we half-ass measured him at mid 140’s? I don’t know for sure, or really care that much. But he’s so freaking pretty.

Here's a good one I was able to catch up with. He had lots of character, that's for sure.

I got lucky and killed this giant with my bow in December 2006 in Illinois. He officially grossed 202 5/8". I would've shot the first 135"+ I saw. Just so happened that this guy came in first.

My biggest was a 138” 4-pt, but highest grossing was a 141” 5-pt. The 138” dwarfs the 5-point. One day I’ll kill a big one.

You can’t kill what’s not in your area. You have to keep that in mind.

yep. Find a nice cute slender girl (>#2... <385#) with a few hundred acres of bottom ground and you will become a much better WT hunter almost overnight... if the bottom ground is inside of a red area.













I miss all the big ones over 180" I cannot keep my composure at under 30 yards.
This one I have on digital format, 174++. But those big ones just turn me to mush.

This guys stares down at me every day from the corner of my office.

178” 2015 MT archery buck

I'm not sure what that has to do with lying about it. I love hunting deer all over their range every year but I would not feel I had to misrepresent a buck from areas with lower trophy potential.

That's a really cool looking buck wherever it came from (I usually attribute those main beam spills to Sask.) Can't tell if it is broke or what.

Adams County. Between Quincy and Payson.

MT Whitetail 156” and change

Mass for days, coolest buck I’ve shot by far.

This heavy bodied 12 point was toppled within the Huron National Forest of Michigan in 1978. Used a Marlin levergun in 44 MAG. TR

Boy there are some absolute slammers on here! I've never killed a really big one. Most deer in the Adirondacks top out around 120" or less (with the occasional exception). Here's my best. Never really had him measured, but when I did it myself from online directions, I think I came up with 115" or so. He was 5.5 years old and I shot him on the top of a ledgy mountain and it wasn't always clear whether I was dragging him out, or he was dragging me... One of the best eating bucks I've killed too!

Actually spotted it from the tower of terror ride when I briefly had my eyes open when we were at Disney world.
