I shot a monster fork horn muley once,it had just over 5 inch bases and was over 28 inches wide.the brow tines just about 4 inches long.
Shot it for management reasons, and on the way home saw a monster seven by six, made this thing look really really stupid, about 1 mile from where I shot that one and I saw it within 20 minutes after killing this one on the way home to hang it.The buck I couldn't shoot was close to book I mean within inches.One of the biggeset Ive ever seen, this rack on this deer was something else.Will never ever do that again.I was in my young young twenties.Never did mount the thing and gave the rack away didn't even get a picture.I'm sure it's around some rich dude probably has it hanging on his wall.It was impressive wish I kept the rack, but learned my lesson.Yeah, mature bucks lacking gentetics will breed,that's a given, but the doe may have dominate genetics as well,or better yet a bigger one will push it out.
