You shoot that bad boy with a crossbow? In a fence? Over a corn pile? Using Scent-Lok? An outfitter? Maybe night vision goggles? Parachute? Poison? High powered rifle with a silencer?
It's a nice buck regardless. Congrats - hopefull you're as succesful this year.

Hope you aren't offended datamax, that is a beautiful buck. I would love to see pics from the front of him and of the weird antler as well.

I'd have to re-measure, but his main beam was like 24", G1 was 5",. G2 was 12", G3 was 10" and the bases were a tad over 5" or so - something like that based off my poor memory. I know any deer than from the side their main beams wrap out to the nose like that equals a fine deer !. His head is huge - 26" neck I believe the taxidermist said. Live body weight maybe 200 pounds - not a big bodied deer, but big headed. My Dad's bucks pushed 275 pounds.
Funny thing, the guys out there almost name the deer they see them so often. This buck ? No one had ever seen him around. if I can get time for more photos or to drag some up I'll post them.
