Oh yeh. All but one robinhood. That buck was so old I think that he was rotting on the hoof. I don't think that old boy had one more winter in him.

I consider a trophy whitetail buck in Northern Idaho to score in the 140's gross or more ... our state record typical is 182 and change and our nontypical is 268 and change... a 130s with a bow is pretty hard to pass on. 120s let em grow!

Most deer at the taxidermist in Ga. won't make 120. I'm not saying they are not trophy's. My first deer that broke 100 is on my wall. I'm just saying what I see. To shoot a deer around here that gets out of the 130's, YOU'VE DONE SOMETHING!
I've never seen a deer in the woods around here larger than 135. I see at least 1 bigger than that every year I go to the mid-west.

Around here a trophy is a mature buck (5 1/2+) that scores 150"+.

I FEEL LIKE A TROPHY SITTING UP ON MY SUMMIT PLATFORM HOLDING MY BOW AS STILL AS ONE, 4 1/2 OR OLDER 140 AND UP I CAN TASTE HIM NOW
