The "Beaty Buck" went for 1 million.

I'd sell the deer, one of my pinky fingers, a big toe, and a testicle for that kind of money.

I have it from a good source Mr. Schackman(hunter) accepted $75,000, but I don't know who bought it. There is a picture of it in the deer hunting forum.

Brian Robeza of Staunton, Illinois. shot a 23 to 25 point (not exactly sure). The Chief and Group Editors of North American Whitetail green scored the deer at around 194". There is a picture of it in our local paper but I don't have it.

I think the dollar amount that people are putting on some of these deer are way overblown. I shot a 212" NT that just missed being scored as a 210 1/8" Typical. If people are getting offered 10's of thousands of dollars for World Class Deer, I'm sure not seeing any of it.

There were 52 deer that Scored B & C last year. I saw at least 5 deer that were over 200" at the Illinois Deer and Turkey Classic last year. A 200" deer is just not as rare as it used to be. The deer has to be really something special to get lots of money. And I think $100,000 would probably be around the max for even a World Record Deer.

If people are really getting that kind of cash for there deer, then more power to them. A deer is really only worth what somebody is willing to pay for them.

I'll try to find pics of the Robeza's deer and post them.

It's somewhat pointless to pay BIG $$ for a "record" deer..only to see it fall next year. With all the products out today for the deer...the next few years are probably going to show some huge racks.

ORIGINAL: Hunter_59

Has anyone on here got the lowdown on this "huge" buck shot somewhere around West Union? I saw a picture and this buck is "awesome"! What I've heard, and you know how stories go, is that this buck has a 30 something inch spread, 38 points, and field dressed around 340 pounds! According to the picture I saw, I'd say these numbers are legit but I haven't heard anymore about it but rumors. One of the rumors was that Cabela's offered $250,000 for the head! Anyone got any information?
The deer is still in my possesion and is being mounted,have not had it scored yet. it weighed 210 field dressed. had 42 points ,three were broken off leaving 39 with maybe 29 scoreable. when i get it back and get scored i will let all know. i'am just glaad i got a shot at him KEN.

Ken, why don't you post the picture of the buck that includes you in it so everyone can see how nice a buck it is. By the way, I've seen the picture of this buck with you kneeling with it.

I have posted a picture. Search for my user name. Right now I don't have a picture small enough to post that has me in it. I will work on that.

I attempted to search by username, but couldn't figure out HOW to do that on this site.
