I'm sure we'll see a full spread of that bad boy in North American Whitetail Magazine!

RE: Illinois Giant !!!!
 

His name is Joel from Southern Illlinois(dont want to put last name). Dont really know the exact story on the buck but it is the talk of this small town.

and what you have to pose pretty with a big buck! They just took this picture with a cell phone!! He prolly didnt have time to go get dressed in his sunday best and comb his hair. DAMN!!!!

RE: Illinois Giant !!!!
 

Bucky~~~ What everyone means is, well just take a look at the "Take Quality Pictures" thread on top of the bowhunting page!!!;)

RE: Illinois Giant !!!!
 

If something like that walked past me i would be in such awwww i probably wouldnt even shoot. i would be looking at his rack....

RE: Illinois Giant !!!!
 

Regardless of score that is a great buck.

Now206 is quite a bit of horn for a 10 pointer to be carrying around.I can't really see it breaking Mel Johnson's state record, which if I'm not mistaken is at 204 inches.

That is one helluva a deer...congrats to the hunter! If in fact it did score 206" net that would make it a new archery world record.

However, I cannot honestly see it scoring 206" NET because to me it looks as if the right G3 & G4 are common base. Anybody remember the Wayne Zaft buck? Would have been an archery world record but had common base tines and this deer shows (to me) more common base between those two tines than the Zaft deer did. Anyways, I'm not knocking this guy's accomplishment at all...please don't take it that way...just trying to put the score into perspective.

I am afraid that if he had walked by me.Me and him would have went to hand to hand combat cause I would have fell out of my deer stand:D
