My biggest scouted buck was shot! double drops PIC*update*
 
Well I am lucky to have a bunch of good bucks running around here but,
I just got news that the monster double drop saw his last day on Oct 28th.

I saw this guy twice over the summer feeding in the field. He is one
of the largest bucks I have saw outside
of Government property around where I hunt.

Congrats to the lucky hunter who I have no idea who he is or what neighbors
property he shot the beauty off of.

Still trying to figure that out. Racking my brain.

I figure him to gross low to mid 180's

What an incredible buck! You've got to be down a bit knowing you won't get to take him, but if there's others around there of that caliber, I'd be out there about every day!!

Yes, it is a pretty big let down to know he is gone.

Now my team and team 4 can see the non typical I spoke about a few occasions. I also said I shouldn't have mentioned him as to jinx myself. Live and learn I guess[&:]

But then again if I were only hunting him as a couple buddies suggested I should do I would still be out there hunting a buck that is no longer around. It was very tempting to try to hold out for him but a level head told me not to.

Perfect example to not put all your eggs in one basket.

No we have no antler restrictions here in Ohio.

He is one ugly buck. To bad you couldn't get him with your bow. Look at the bright side maybe next year or after that you'll see one of his off spring.

Good luck and get something before the season's out. Too bad you couldn't make it down to Md. but I hope you do fine just as well.

Thanks for the wish of good luck, but I am tagged out just not with this guy;)

Good luck on your trip. Hope you get on of those big MD bucks.

Thats one great buck!! Just think how many times that buck probably passed his genes on!! They'll be more like him in years to come!! Good Luck!!

That poor deer. My neck hurts just thinking about carrying around all that head gear.

Here is a little update.

I did find out the hunters name and everything. Although I still do not know what farm he took the beast off of.

Turns out it was his first ever deer with a bow. Talk about starting out with a bang[&:]

Congrats again to the lucky hunter!

Holy Buckets Batman! What a buck! Looks pretty symetrical too, a real beauty.

If that is the guy's first I would say its all down hill from here....of course no one really knows.

What an awesome deer, that would kinda suck taking what I would consider a buck of a lifetime as your first bow kill. How will any other seasons even compare. Hey buckeye it is a good think you didn't take that buck, it would have just started more arguments on the size. I think that guy just saved you alot of grief:D. Just kidding, I could not resist.

Boy that first timer doesn't have much to look up to now. That's a buck of a life time for 99% of all us. Like everyone else has said buckeye maybe he planted his seed alot. Let's hope so. Sorry you didn't get a crack at him.

I really don't think anyone would have called anyone out on the score of this bad boy. He looks every bit of 180 inches, even at first glance;)[8D]

I have heard of retrieving a deer with a wheel barrow, but now I have seen everything. A frontloader is new to me, lol.
Sorry you didn't get that buck, Buckeye. Great looking beast there.

Definitely a beauty. I cannot imagine seeing something like that walking through my neck of the woods. :)

That's a nice looking buck!

My brother saw several good bucks while gun hunting in Highland county. Said one was a non typical with some good size....going to send him a copy of this and just rub it in!
