OK everyone.....let the debate rage on. I must apologize to you all. After getting involved in this post, i contacted the Kentucky DFW and asked if an exceptionaly lare deer had been killed and found by somebody else in the last season. The spokesperson said that indeed a humongous deer had been shot and not recovered and later found by another hunter. The only thing is, the picture in this post isn't it. i just recieved pictures in the mail as well as a newspaper article about the big buck from kentucky. The story goes like this. A deer that was nicknamed "Chocolate"(due to his extra dark coat) was shot by a hunter, Doug Lindell, on October 17th in the woods near Sulfer Creek in Glenmary. The hunter failed to recover the deer after two solid days of searching. Four weeks later, Lindell went hunting with his buddy, Chris Crawford. Crawford found the deer by accident when he was walking back to his truck. Lindell had no more buck tags, so Crawford tagged the deer. The deer has not yet been scored as of 11-26, however two people attempted to score it. One came up with a score of 257, the other 299. Quite a difference, so it should be interesting to see. This buck is an absolute MONSTER!!! I have a pic of it in my hand, however, i can't get it on here. It has 32 scoreable points, double drop tines, about 5 browtines on each side, 4 additional smaller drop tines, and wicked mass. it looks to me like a mainframe 12 pointer with TONS of junk.
In summation, I have no clue about the pic at the begginning of this thread. sorry for any confusion i may have caused.
