Default Huge IA Buck!! Must Look!!

Got this in an email:

This is a 33 point buck shot near Mingo, east of Des Moines, IA
on the Skunk River north of Interstate 80. This guy was bragging
about the deer so, the DNR got involved. Turns out he is a convicted
felon and shot the deer with a shotgun. Felons can't own shotguns,

The DNR took the gun, the deer and arrested the guy.
It is said to be the the largest rack in the US. Even larger
than the Albia buck.


What do you guys think??

I think if we don't let 'em grow....they'll never reach 300".

Good God, that thing is massive! I think I'd lose my composure if I saw that thing walking towards my stand.

Well, the buck is tagged, so they sold him the tag right? If they are going to make a big fuss over the felon thing, how did he even get past the computer to get a tag?

Ever heard of a bow and arrow? Convicted fellons can legally hunt they just can't do it with a gun. I'm sure that just like in every other state that archery gear is legal in gun season.
