Default Favorite famous deer shot!

I was just wondering what your favorite of the big bucks that have ever been shot are? Personally mine is the JORDAN BUCK, and the reason for that is because of it's great story!

Correct me if Im wrong but mine was Mossyhorns, I think it was shot by a guy named Del Austin. I also enjoyed the story behind this buck. I think he hunted that buck for 2yrs, I remember him saying that he hit the buck in the antlers the first time he shot at it with a recurve bow. Then actually harvested it the following year.

Don't care for any of them especially the Hanson buck. I feel real sorry for the guy that missed it on the drive before the drive they killed it on. I wonder if the rest of the party, drivers and watchers are getting the money an royalites that Hanson is getting. They were all party to the killing. But I don't want to hijack the thread. Sorry.

To answer your question, I don't have a favorite. Actually I'm wrong, My favorite right now is Lady Forge's 190" monster in the contest thread.

Sorry Rob ,but I have to differ with you on the Hanson buck ,I've seen it and I've met Milo Hanson and he's an awsome guy .I also have the book on how the buck was taken ,and unfortunately your right there were other's that had a chance to take that buck and yes there were other's involved as well ,but Milo was the one that took him and that's just part of hunting .
Just my opinion

The Hanson buck is 1 of my favourite's ,but there's another one ,but I just can't remember the guy's name at this moment,but it was taken by bow as well. I know his name started with a Z .

These are two of my favorite bucks. The Jordan and the Breen bucks. This is a friend of mine who knew the guy that bought them (Hoffman). They have since been sold (Legendary Whitetail Collection).

I don't understand how thing isn't considerd typical! I know they say the G3 on the left side isn't anyhting but an abnormal point, but it looks pretty normal to me! Just makes me wonder about some of these scorers!
