What do you think about this 8 pt?
 
I'd like to get some input on my buck from everyone. Obviously he's special to me, he's a mainframe eight thatnets just over 160" and his tips cross over by around a half an inch. His inside spread is only 17" but his mainbeams are both over 27 inches. I harvested him in Wisconsin with a 50 Cal Muzzleloader after our regular nine day rifle season. Thanks to all in advance.

Very nice! Unique rack, I've never seen one that crosses in the front like that. Must have been work for him to rub off the velvet...

congrats on a super buck!!! He's every bit a shooter. The tiny crabs claw on the end of the left beam is neat.
how big is his body? He looks to be a good sized deer.

Thats a pretty nice crown of tines , good mass though out the entire rack.
Definetly something to proud of and well worth mounting ... CONGRATS .

He was a pretty big deer but he was all rutted out. He only weighed 175LBS. Not an once of fat on him. He was six and a half years old. The really cool thing is my buddy shot either his father or his brother back in 2001 and has him on the wall. We're hunting some pretty big tracts of public land in northern Wisconsin and it's neat to see good genetics being passed along.

Awesome buck !!!! Especially for a buck on public land in Northern WI. I hunted the Nicolet National Forest for 12 years and never shot or let alone seen anything in that class. Congrats !!!!

A 120" 8pt is a shooter in my neck of the woods. If you shot that buck on public land dont tell a soul where. Not even what town!

That is a really unusual deer. I would be proud of him.

RE: What do you think about this 8 pt?
 
This is a pretty special animal to me. Living up here in northern Wisconsin we have, in my eyes, a problem with people baiting out of their house and shooting big bucks at night with their bows. It's more common than people think. I don't hunt over bait. I'm not saying it's right or wrong, it's just the decision i made a long time ago. It just gets so frustrating year after yearwalking a mile into your stand and a mile out of your stand knowing that your neighbor down the road shot a 160 class buck out of his back patio door. It's one of the best feelings in the world, knowing that you busted your hump for so long and it finally paid off. Thanks everyone for all of your comments.

RE: What do you think about this 8 pt?
 
He is a beautiful mature whitetail! I've seen main beams come close to touching but never that close....It always seems to be with the tall not so wide racks

outdoorslover 01-12-2007 12:34 PM

RE: What do you think about this 8 pt?
 
Now that is a big buck!!!! The way his tines cross is amazing too. You've got a trophy to be proud of!
