Must be rumor. There was a very nice buck taken on opening day, but nothing of that stature.

Terri: I might be wrong, but I think when an outfit like Cabelas buys something like that, they have copies made and put them in all of their stores.

dont know if the price was true...but that fact that the brute was killed in amish country with an xbow is true.
sorry for any confusion. if i killed that buck i wouldnt sell it for any amount of money, unless they wanted to buy copies of it. but they arent getting the original.

RE: $500,000.00 Deer??
I agree it would bring a lot of money, but I highly doubt near 500K. The World Record Lovstuen Buck from a couple years ago, sold for speculated 100-125K It was a bigger buck and much more famous deer. The Hole in the Horn Buck sold for around 200+K(If I remember right) It's the most famous buck of all time, and 2nd biggest ever, in the world.
Not saying it's not possible, and I could be wrong,but I don't see Cabelas or anyone spending 500K on a deer rack which doesn't reach 300 B&C

You're prolly right on the rumor, as a later post on same forum pointed out the fact that the world record non-typical only brought $100,000.

Goliath ( a pen raised deer)actually had the biggest rack of any Whitetail Buck that ever lived at over 400".
The Hole in the Horn is ranked second in the "flawed" scoring system to the Missouri Monarch but actually had much greater mass than the Monarch and should be second to Goliath.
Here is a pic of Goliathat the height of his glory.
