Found a dead Buck (good pics on page 3)
 

went shed hunting today and only walked for about an hour when i found this







he grossed 180 2/8, my cell phone takes crappy pics but for referance his brows are 7 each and his right G2 is 13 4/8



my brother shot a 185 inch 14 pointduring this yearsyouth season so this year we have taken off our farm 2 180's (i kinda count this one :D)

the management on our 2000 acre farm is finally paying off, in the past 2 years we have taken4bucks (and found one) so a total of 5,that grossed over 170 (2 over 180) and have had4 in the 145-165 range (unfortunately i have taken 0 of these [:@])

I feel your pain on the fact you have not taken any but it sounds like a great property. Good luck in the up coming years and I look forward to hearing about your efforts.

RE: Found a dead Buck
 

WOW! that is a giant buck, to back he had to die like that. But a nice buck anyway.

RE: Found a dead Buck
 

How did he die? Any way of knowing?

RE: Found a dead Buck

What a great buck.

RE: Found a dead Buck
 

there was no way to tell but he had been dead for a while, we think he was shot off the road by poachers and then ran into the thickest nastiest stuff on our property but then again, anything could've happened

RE: Found a dead Buck
 

Wow that's a hell of a find.

RE: Found a dead Buck
 

Man that is a great buck, and I applaud your management program.

RE: Found a dead Buck
 

Great buck! Sounds like you have been working hard on your management program. I hope you get to start enjoying the fruits of your labor.

RE: Found a dead Buck
 

Wow, what a stud!!! It's to bad he went like he did.

RE: Found a dead Buck

RE: Found a dead Buck
 

That is a lot of bone...great find.

RE: Found a dead Buck
 

I think we are starting to see a winter kill here in Kansas, I have a friend who has found 4 dead bucks, he also found a set of lock-ups which would explain their death, along with over 40 sheds, I have found 1 dead buck,,,, very nice find, have him mounted or do a european mount with him, he deserves it.

RE: Found a dead Buck
 

So, did you know he was there? i mean did you have any encounters with him during season? Nice buck there for sure!

RE: Found a dead Buck
 

that is a giant buck man, really to bad it had to die the way it did...You going to get it mounted or anything?

RE: Found a dead Buck
 

well, during rifle season i was about to take a shot at a deer that looked a lot like this one at around 300 yards, i only got to see the buck for around 5 seconds though when dogs came runnin through and the buck ran off
but it was only a glance so i cant be sure

other than that we never knew about this buck and heck yea im goin to mount him!

RE: Found a dead Buck
 

What a stud. At least, he can be appreciated for what he was now. ;)

RE: Found a dead Buck
 

what a rack!!!! nice find... too bad he didn't make it

RE: Found a dead Buck
 

That is a real nice deer. to bad he was found like that.

RE: Found a dead Buck
 

Great find. Sounds like the hard work is starting to pay off with the caliber of bucks you guys have walking around on your land.
