Went out and found a really nice typical yesterday evening and found an absolute giant this morning. Took a few pics from a mile away through the spotter. They are not good pics but you can tell they are both good deer that most people would take

Here is the typical from last night. Really good forks and small matching cheaters.

And here is the GIANT found this morning! My jaw hit the dirt, I was not expecting to find a deer like this. The pictures are horrible but he has tremendous back forks with multiple splits in each fork. This buck will easily have 40" of mass measurements IMO. He is at least a 7x7 with a spread exceeding 30". I looked at him for about 2 seconds before leaving the area so I didnt spook him. I took these pics when he stood up 2 hours later from almost a mile.

I am guestimating this buck to be 210"-215", these pictures cannot begin to do him justice. I am hoping we can get the bowhunter on him tomorrow

It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

Haven't been able to relocate the big non typical I found on Friday but I did find a great 185"-190" typical tonight. I have a pic I took through my spotter that I'll try to post tonight.

If somebody wants to post it for me that may be easier, I can email them from my phone. Not sure how to host the pic from my iPhone

I am downloading video I took this morning of the non-typical I found on Friday. The video sucks as it was taken through my spotting scope in a hurry. He was running a few does and I didnt have time.

I will post the videos momentarily

Photobucket has an iPhone app. Easy to upload to PB and then post image here.
