Just returned from my wife's first whitetail hunt we drew tags for the late hunt and had a great time. My wife's buck. My buck I know that they get bigger but this was the best time I have had hunting in a long time.

Congrats to you both. Is it me, or do they have big ears for whiteys?

Thanks for the kind word. They are really large bodied deer wife's buck was 20" wide one more year he would have gone on the wall. I videoed her kill but can't get it to down load to YouTube to post. She made a great shot at 532 yards.

20 inches wide, those ears must be close to 18 wide alert then?
Congrats all around.
Had a deer last year, about 4 inches past one ear, 5 past the other. We figure he was 23 inside... 9 past your ears.. WOW that would be a wide one.

Wife's buck was 110# and mine was 120# would have not guessed it in the field but hanging it was a big difference
