My cuz used to work at Newport Chemical Depot back over 10 years ago. Man that place used to be full of giants until they opened it to hunting. He found an 18pt with a 13.5" drop tine dead that scored close to 190. He got permission to keep the head and paid to have it mounted and Cabela's bought it from him for a little under $2K. A week later another guard found a 22 pointer dead that that had bases so big you could not get your hands around them. The deer was decomposed very badly so the guard cut the horns off individually ruining the rack so I don't know what it would have officially scored but it looked to be over 200". We used to hunt a very small tract of land right outside and up against the fence of the compound.
