What a buck! One of the all time greats imo. They say 278" but he looks better than that. What a deer and what a treat to get to see the picture


Figured that came out of that area that you guide in Drummond. You seeing some nice ones, over there, while your scouting?

I don't guide there. I just know it was due to throw a giant.

Yikes! When I was a kid (about 50 years ago) one of the guys hunting with my dad got one something like that. When they were packing it out with a Tote Goat it's nose was dragging on one side and its rear was dragging on the other. Had something like 15 points on one side and 13 on the other. The old guy who shot it was about 80 something at the time and shot it with his 30-30 rifle with irons.
Nice to know there are still bucks of our dreams out there somewhere.


I am continually astounded at how quickly people make up their minds on little evidence or none at all.

The guides know when giants will be thrown. You must have guys offering to wipe your ass.

I figured that buck is around 300"

Those don't come along often, especially ones as pretty as that one.

If that is the case, the hunter should have held out for a bigger buck.
