Posted By: RBO Northern Alberta Whitetail Mass - 12/06/19
Here’s a few pics of of my Northern Alberta Whitetail. I’m an avid deer hunter, I don’t shoot very often but when I have an opportunity at something big I’ll take it. I normally guide most of November but I had a last minute cancellation as a result of a client missing a flight giving me a day off to hunt for myself. I had been after this deer for three years and the stars finally aligned this fateful fall day.

I never seen him last year, I thought the wolves got him but two years ago he was a giant. I guessed him in the 220-240 range two years ago, he was on his way down this year, I’d age him around 8-1/2 this year. Two years ago he was with another buck in the 160’s, I think that might be the deer we seen 2 miles south of where I got this guy. i did see one of his offspring or his mother’s offspring this year, had the exact same frame only about 4yrs younger. I can’t wait to see him in two more years.
cool deer
Outstanding! Thanks for the pics and history!
Wow!! Congrats!
Good grief, what a toad! Love that buck. Heavy, and he's got "Lobster Claws" out at the end too... just too cool.
Congrats - that is one of heck of a buck!!
Massive ain’t enough to describe that bad boy...😎

I’ve shot a few big ones in the 160’s, a couple huge ones that grossed in the 170’s, but this guy I would have to say is colossal. Even the pictures don’t do it justice. It’s score won’t reflect its size, even though it grosses right around the 200” mark. It’s left G2 and right G3 both measure over 4” in circumference, it’s H measurements average over 6” and stay thick right out to the end of the beams, with 3 points at the end of each beam, and it has matching eye guards like an elk. I’m sure there wasn’t a deer around that would want to mess with him.

+1 The Canada Dry can made me really realize how thick those antlers are at the base! Good job on the photography too, man!

As far as antlers go, those are full of character and I'd prefer them over damn near everything, regardless of score!

Holy smokes!
thats prolly the most massive and biggest main frame 8's i've laid eyes on. one to be proud of and congrats to you brother.

Agreed! One of the most incredible whitetails I've ever seen. Love those front daggers below the brow tines.
Simply sensational and to think that he was actually bigger in years past--220-240"---Unreal!
I've spent a few seasons north of Athabasca looking for one of those massive bucks. You deserve a big congratulations!

Chris has a nice spot on calling lake, he’s my wife’s cousin.
RBO….what did "YOUR HUNTER" get??….just curious
An 8 point with a 9” drop tine. It grossed in the 170’s, he was happy.
