Just a couple deer (free range) on my patch of land.

Very nice.

Sweet! That'll get the juices flowing!

Very nice! I was excited to see one 1/2 that big on my place.

One of them has a nice handle on his right beam.

The eyes indicate they are alien deer.

Probably cost me another fight with the wife on where to hang him

Good looking deer. Going to be a good year in Texas this year with all the rain that we have had.

This is about the best I can get on my VA farm and sometimes a little bigger but not often.

nice pix of good looking deer!

I call BS!!!
That ain't Texas...I see grass.

and no corn.

i don't get the big ones on camera till gun season and either at night or when i'm no where around

Nice buck, I love the droptine

Finished growing and all rubbed out.

Wow.....long tined joker ain't he? Beuatiful buck.

That's a dandy! I love long tined typicals when it comes to whitetails.

Dang fine buck. Good luck

Nice! Hope you get a crack at him. Good Luck!

Wow! That's a nice one.

Should be a beauty next year.

Can I come hunt that stand???!?!!?

NICE! that's cool he stuck around. We never see the same deer summer to fall like that.

Nice !!!

Bad ass! Nice buck.

congrats! glad you got him.

cool! Seems to be a heck of a year for deer in TX.

Having taken a buck right at 160 from the hill country I was amazed beyond belief this year.

We have an 8 with tiny crabs out right now, 14 inch G2s... no one will shoot him even though he needs to go. Everyone trying to find the needle like I found, in a big haystack.

Hill country was full rut this weekend. Bucks hemmed up with does all over, nothing much moving at all... I had someone tell me they quit eating already and went to acorns bla bla bla... some folks have NO clue.

I had dropped my oldest boy off at his blind and was on my way to set up under some trees along a big pasture when I spotted him 240ish yards away chasing a doe. Just had time to throw up the Kimber Montana .270WSM

He dropped at the shot. I had absolutely no clue it was the drop-tine buck, as with my eyes I could only tell that it was a good legal buck. To say I was surprised and tickled when I found out which buck I had dropped would be an understatement.

I've been hunting for him since archery season. Haven't seen him, nor captured on camera since two days after archery season opened. Figured he had moved on as bucks tend to do when hunting season and rut kick off.

He was approx. 1/2 mile away from where I had been getting pictures of him on trail cam since the summer.

Pure luck... right place at right time.

+1

Peak of the rut.

Very cool big ole buck....

Crazy lucky! I just can't make myself shoot a deer that fast. I have to know what I"m shooting. Well there was one once... but I never got a solid shot at him in CO one fall.... but that one I KNEW at a glance was a solid shooter...
Few days later I saw him again... 18 or 19 points and 200 some inches. The kid was happy with him. I was proud of the kid too.

But dang thats good luck!

The guys at the lease were all over me opener, I watched the almost 160 inch buck for 20 minutes and then decided he was the one. Grabbed the ammo out of the pack, loaded the rifle... put the muffs on the dogs ears, and about 5-10 minutes later had the perfect angle I wanted about 150 yards out. LOL, most said they'd have missed him when he walked out instantly.

Congrats on a FINE deer!

Where's your place Fos? powdr

I've got two places. Medina and Blanco counties. The buck was taken in Medina.

Man thats really cool brother. Around here we would call him , from that body, 5.5 years old.. Definitely nice!

Super!! Love the history and the ending. Well done.

Go get the other one.

Roughed scored him 136 1/4

Drop was 5 5/8
