largest was an 8 pt. 123 lbs.
farily large rack for my area,maybe 105 pts.on the horns.
I don't really measure horns because we don't have large horns,a 125 is big in my area.


I am not a hunter I am a whitetail population reduction specialest

remember keep your back to the sun, your knife sharp, and your powder dry.

I guess you're talking body size and not score,so my biggest bodied buck to date field dressed 260#.I stalked the big mature buck in his bed on Oct. 29 1999 and made a perfect 27 yard shot to put the big boy down for the count.

I shot an eight pointer this year on Thanksgiving that weighed 165 pounds dressed, over 200 live. He would have been close to 125 if he hadn't had broken some off of a main beam.

I have 2 that I like to brag about. Both were taken from the same tree stand 2 years apart. While I didn't get a scale weight on either one both took about 1 1/2 hours to drag out the 150 yards to were we could drive. I would put them at a legitimate 190 field dressed. Both scored just over 150 net with the largest going 170 plus gross. Both also were unusally wide with one going 28 1/8 and the other 27 1/2 inside spread. Havn't come close to anything like that since. Both provided huge thrills that I will never forget.

Wow! You all have taken some nice bucks with a bow, I haven't even killed them that big with my rifle! But I'm only 13 so I'm just getting started. Well good luck next year.
