241 inch monster
 

48 year-old Tim Friedman shot this buck. It grossed 241 0/8, and nets in at 226 2/8" "green" by scorer Mark Verble. The greatest spread is 34 6/8, and the inside spread is 23 3/8". The buck has 22 points with 10 non-typical tines adding 44 1/8" of score to the final net non-typical score. Mark is a respected scorer for HRBP, etc. These numbers are not offial because the buck hasn't gone through the 60-day drying period yet.


25 minutes from my house.

I hadn't realizedpeople have expressed concern about your limited access to big bucks.

RE: For Those of you who Dont Believe that there are big bucks near me......241 inch monster
 

certain people on here says that I lie about there being big bucks around here... just because Indiana isnt Iowa or Illinois or something like that. Indiana is in fact the #10 top state for producing record book bucks.

oh well, it doesnt matter. right?

I can sort of verify this, my brother knows Friedman and he called me last night and told me about it. While I have not personally seen it my brother can.

Thats an amazing buck! If that was me id be smiling a little more in the picture.

I just found out that Tim Friedman passed away in October. R.I.P.

Thats to bad bristowboy, did you ever get to know Tim? Did he ever join this site? Either way, i googled him and his obituary says he was a family man, life long farmer, volunteer fire fighter and a heck of a hunter, what a monster wild buck!!! Sounds like he lived a good, but to short of a life at 55, RIP Tim.
