Big va buck down!!!!!
 

I took him with the ML the morning of November 8th at 7am on property in Central Virginia. He's a perfectly symetrical 10pt with a 1.5" kicker at the base of his left antler. He has ALOT of mass. He weighed approximately 200 lbs, 20.5" inside spread. Taxidermist said he's gonna go between 155-165". I'm completely taken aback by this deer. Pictures do not do him justice.

Nice buck! That's a monster!! :biggrin:

Very nice!!! Congrats!!

Nice buck, good work

great buck, congrats

nice buck. was this w/ gold mine? i thought you said that you were a member there. very nice deer

Yes, was with the GMHC. We are REALLY starting to see the difference this year since we started a strict QDM 5 years ago. This was the second of 3 real NICE bucks taken so far this year. Here are a few more pics......

The pics are blocked at work, but he sounds really nice. Was he ruttin' hard?

He was cruising. No does in sight when he came in. His neck was swollen like heck and his tarsals smelled typical of this time of year. They were rutting hard that whole week and a few days during the past week. It was like the switch flipped Thursday November 4th.....at least where I was hunting anyway.

im glad you are having a sucess with QDM. when i was with Morlen, buck and i always marvelled at how organized your club was compared to ours. i talked to buck right before Black powder season and he told me morlen only had 19 paying members this year. it sounds like there is some quality deer still left down there.

Nice one bro!

Great buck. Congrats again.

Yeah, I saw Buck a few times while I was there. I drove by the Big oak where he always parks on the gravel road on the morning of the ML opener after I had killed an 18 inch spread 6pt(he was a Big 6pt). I stopped to talk to him and to show him the buck I had just taken a few hours earlier. He called me a "meat" hunter after he saw it. We had a big laugh over it then and at the restaurant later that night. Buck's a great guy. Wish there were more out there like him. I make a point to talk to him everytime I see him. I heard they also killed a monster 10 pt a week or two ago. So yeah, the big deer are still there.

Congrats...GREAT MONSTER BUCK!!

grear deer, congrats
