They dont get that big because there stupid. Most all, 99% of the big bucks around here never get shot they end up dying of old age or getting hit by a car or truck during the rut.
Like you some of the one's we see on camera never show themselves during daylight, even during the rut they breed at night if at all. Once they reach a certain age they only have one thing on there mind and that's survival.
That one's a beauty for sure, he's like one we've been after that never shows during the daylight, I know he's still out there because last week my wife almost hit him on here way home from work as he was crossing the road onto one of my buddys farms. He's a Big 8 like the one in your pic, very similar. Were guessing he scores in the high 140's possibly 150's.
Good luck and hope you find the sheds and figure out his patterns. The bucks around here should start losing there racks any time now, but with this mild winter who knows when they'll drop em.
