Probably didn't happen. But are there those who think its impossible? Although mostly because we kill all the little ones due to population, and a lot of the big ones get poached, our state does have incredible genetics for all species.

^^I think all deer hunting should be permit only with how many hunters are out there. Its incredibly hard for the small bucks to make it through the seasons to be a quality buck. I talked to the guys at Owens Meats when I picked up my elk yesterday, they said they had over 200 deer come in this year, none of which were big bucks.

I guess it's a matter of perspective.  I saw more big bucks this year than I have in a very long time.  The dry weather, the fires, etc all had an effect on what everyone saw this year I think.
