Sold without 1 second of hesitation. That much would pay off every bill the wife and I have plus give me about $40K to spend on more hunting trips. Besides, if my wife found out someone offered me that much, she would insist they be sold. Figure all they cost was a deer tag in the first place. You can't find anything else with that sort of return. This would be hunting's equivalent of finding a Rembrandt at a garage sale. You ever hear of anyone keeping the painting? Nope, it is on its way to auction as soon as possible.

But, like others have mentioned, the odds of getting such an animal is very, very slim. A deer would either have to be the world record or be very close to it to command that price. Such deer are not common, which is why a price in 6 digits is even talked about.
