Just curious as to how many times you've shot a buck and found it to be bigger than you thought when you shot it?

Honestly when I shot the buck I did this season, I didn't think he was as big as he was. once I got down and really got to look him over is when he really looked impressive.

Have you been watching too much Drury's Outdoors Videos? Just Kidding! My biggest buck was alot bigger than I thought after I recovered him.

I've had 2 that kept growing the closer I got. One was a 240 lb. field dressed monster( weighed on a scale), that grossed 160 in. The other one grossed 165 in. Those antlers just kept getting bigger and bigger.

It has happend to me twice. One buck I didn't get a great look at before I shot it, and it turned out to be a very wide 8 point. The other one I knew was big, but not as big as it was. It was just under 150".

I only had one grow when i walked up. He's on the wall.

I shot what I thought was a nice 8 pt and when I found him half his rack was stuck in the goldenrod........the exposed side was a perfect 5 points so I thought he was a 10.......when I yanked his head up I saw his other side went a little goofy and had 8 points of it's own. He grew twice

This happend to the buck in my avatar. I thought that maybe i made a mistake until i walked up on him.

It's happened to me as well.The buck I shot this year came so fast that I didn't get a look at his rack, but I instantly knew he was a good one. What a great suprise it is when you first put your hands on him.
