im not real sure how big they are supposed to be in penna.
Depends on the property. On private land a 150 inch 10 pointer is a real possibility. Public land, 110-120" is a real nice buck.

I mostly hunt upstate and this buck is in a suburban woodlot in the SE of the state. Biggest one I heard of in my home town was a 198" that was taken in 2004. It was in NA Whitetail magazine. The Chris Jones buck.

The buck in this picture is in woods that isn't hunted. Well, a few guys hunt it every now and then but it's not really open to hunting. If he doesn't get hit by a car, he has a real chance to hit 5,6,7+ years old.
