Just a couple of observations:

1. If big bucks are so rare where so live then why does your profile say you are from " Big Buck USA"

2. that will probably be the last big buck that you will ever see on that property if you told everyone where you killed it. I guarantee you if that is the case then you will start seeing new tresspassing problems that you have never seen before. If I kill a thumper, (like yesterday) unless someone happens to pull up and see it in the back of the truck or catch it at the processor then no one is going to know and they certainly aren' t going to know where I was hunting.

Now to answer your question the trophy is in the eye of the beholder. If it' s a trophy to you then it' s a trophy. Personally, a buck that scores 200 isn' t a trophy to me if it' s killed with a gun because I don' t see killing a deer with a gun to be an equal challenge. I feel the advantage goes distinctly to the hunter when a gun is involved. But again that' s just my opinion and it' s not meant to take away from anyone elses deer. There is not a mathematical formula to figure who' s trophy is the " most throphiest" .

PS

Did you kill it with a bow or gun?
