Default RE: In search of a booner


The Short: On the hoof, no i havnt seen a booner. The biggest buck ive ever scene with my own eyes prolly scored 120. But thats only becouse ive only been hunting alot for a year (6 years of only hunting gun season before that).

The Long: About 1/2 mile away from my house is a large 2,000+ acre farm that nobody has permission to hunt. They simply just dont allow it. One of myhunting buddy lives on the edge of the farm and has some tree stands set up on the edge of his property. Over the years he has told me stories of bucks thatwould push180 B&C typicle points. Some of my other buddies ended buying a smaller farm that is also next to this large farm. The first year they had it, they ended shooting one of the top 10 typicles in the state of Ohio for the year 2003 (Don't know exact score, but around 170, and was a perfect 8 point). And just this last season my cousin shot a 150+ class buck thier. All these hunters have seen deer that they swear would tower over thier bucks, so we'll have to see what next season brings up. But the true hotspot for big bucks is Morgan County. The stories my hunting group has from down thier are so imposible sounding that you would think they were out of a hunting magazine. Abasalute hogs of bucks live down thier. Huge non-typicles and typicle bucks. Most usually scene at distances of over 300 yards. The next world record has a good chance of coming from that area, i have no doubt in my mind.
