That is definitely a blind hog... And a sweet buck!! Lmao!! Great buck!!!! Please don't encourage him. He was a pleasant young man when he first showed up but has fallen in with a bad crowd. Whoops That buck looks to be an absolute lunker in the body department!

Big Muleys are truly about my favorite big game animal. Something to be said for a real old buck too, regardless of his score. That's cool JB, really cool.

Some deer are just BIG even though they don't score well. An ex GF shot a WT that dwarfs most 165in bucks yet scores in the low 150's. JB's buck is BIG and I would absolutely shoot him over most 190in typicals. Matter of fact I would fall all over myself trying to kill him.

outstanding buck!
i don't suppose you'd tell me the general location you got him?
(not behind the shoulder)
i didn't even hunt for big game this year (the 1st time since about 1997)
i'm getting old now and the thrill is nearly gone for deer
i'm sick of fighting the local crowds

My buddy Scott killed this buck on the last day of the season. Another .264 Win Mag/140gr VLD kill. He felt bad as the buck was only 4 1/2yrs but it is very hard to pass a 192 gross buck. Buck was running at 400yds. He hit it to far back on a quartering angle but the VLD did it's job and the buck was dead before he could get another shot. The elk was shot at 980yds using the same rifle/bullet.(Scott calls it "The Green Hornet")
