Buck of a lifetime
I browse here more than I post, but I finally got the big one. It's a mainframe 10 point with a 1 inch kicker off the base of its left antler. - Inside spread: 20 1/4 inches Main beam length: 25 1/2 inches - Dressed out at 165 lbs and taken with an Remington 870 slug gun at 1:30pm on Friday, 12 November off of Fort Campbell, Kentucky. It has not been scored, but the game warden, who is also a B&C scorer estimated it around 160 inches. He also checked the buck's teeth and aged it at 3 1/2! Now that's some genetics. If I had one piece of advice to offer, it would be to hunt the midday. Good luck to all and be safe.

RE: Buck of a lifetime
Thanks ya'll. I am very humbled by the whole experience. This is the biggest deer I have ever seen in my life (except for TV), and I know I'll probably never see another one like this again. But I don't mind that one bit.
