It is good to be in Kansas. 12 pointer
 

I arrowed him 2 yards on the 29th of Oct off a place I have in Kansas. He is a typical 12 pointer with a small kicker off the right G2. He ended up scoring 172 and some odd change. I can't wait to get back out and hit the horns together and do some videoing. I almost let him walk because he didn't have great heigth.

Man...that's not a buck...that's a HORSE !!! How much did he dress out at?? We don't see big bodied deer like that too often in my neck of the woods.......GREAT BUCK.....!!

Nice job, what the spread on that monster.

RE: It is good to be in Kansas. 12 pointer
 

2 yards?? Man, that is close. Great job.

RE: It is good to be in Kansas. 12 pointer
 

Your right, he doesn't have great height, but the mass and width certainly makes up for up! What a monster, congrats.

Wow that boys head is huge, Good Job

RE: It is good to be in Kansas. 12 pointer
 

Awesome buck. Congrats!

RE: It is good to be in Kansas. 12 pointer
 

He has a 24 inch inside spread. His main beam are both 26 inches and he is 5 7/8 inch mass at the base...

Nice Buck Jim. Jarrod sent me the pic's yesterday. :D

I can't even imagine being in a position to where I would pass a 170ish buck because it wasn't big enough...:D

RE: It is good to be in Kansas. 12 pointer
 

nice deer, just dont look like hes got enough tine length to be 170.

RE: It is good to be in Kansas. 12 pointer
 

24 inside spread. 2- 26 inch main beams, 5 7/8 mass on both sides, 4 inch mass the rest of the way, and a total of 11 tines to measure I agree the tines are not the most impressive but I guess I cannot have it all, but he is 172 none the less

How much did it weigh?

Am I the only person that cares more about that than antler scores?

RE: It is good to be in Kansas. 12 pointer
 

No, you're not, Pat, that thing is a MONSTER. I have NEVER seen a deer with a head that big, holy bejeezies, Batman! I have GOT to know how much that thing weighed! It's head is seriously the size of a horse! I'm in utter amazement that anyone would consider letting that thing walk by, it would walk by me though, 'cuz I'd fall over from a heartattack blowing all chances of a shot! [8D]

Us Indiana boys 'n' girls want to know the weight!?

RE: It is good to be in Kansas. 12 pointer
 

You are right. He does have a huge head and the body to match.I would guess his age to be 5 1/2 or older and body weight around 280. Around here weight is not talk about as much as age and rack...I will be taping my buddies hunts now. We have a good piece of ground to hunt (10,000 acres) and are able to let 3 1/2 year old deer that go around 140- 150s go until the next year so they can reach there potential. I have some good deer on video from last year that should be studs this year.

RE: It is good to be in Kansas. 12 pointer
 

You were going to let it walk ?? Oh come on your just teasing us right ??????

It is a great buck.Let it Pass I heard it all now

RE: It is good to be in Kansas. 12 pointer
 

Nice buck. Congrats!!

RE: It is good to be in Kansas. 12 pointer
 

What county did you take him out of? Our farm is in Smith County.....we have some nice bucks, but I've never seen anything that big. Did you get him down around Ark City?

RE: It is good to be in Kansas. 12 pointer
 

I shot him in Reno County. I thought I videoed him last year but it was a different deer. We (my buddy and I) have been fortunate enough to hae a good piece of ground where we can let 140s and younger 150s pass to let them reach there potential. It is very hard to let a nice high 140 inch deer pass but knowing that there is bigger deer out there and that by letting him walk you will get a chance a 160 or 170 next year helps.

RE: It is good to be in Kansas. 12 pointer
 

Awesome buck. I hunt in reno county as well.It is not the main county I hunt in b/cI also hunt in Sedgwick, Harvey, and Sumner. But all these counties are capable of growing these kind of bucks. I just wish i had 10000 acres to hunt like you.

RE: It is good to be in Kansas. 12 pointer
 

Very nice!

RE: It is good to be in Kansas. 12 pointer
 

Must be rough!! I have never seen a buck quite like that. Man 280 lbs.!!! That's huge!! Congratulations!!!
