This is great  :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle:

Thank goodness I hate it when it takes 4 pages for the pictures of the requested "toads" to show up.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

This is funny, but not get to sidetracked as I still want to see pics.   

Rumor of one buck is he went 30-34 inches wide and the other was super heavy.  This rumor started with a co-worker that just picked his deer up from the butcher.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

The one on the left has to be a new State record!

Sorry, not a chance.  It's forks aren't deep enough and it doesn't have enough mass.  I can tell you for fact after looking at that 1 photo its not a state record.

The one on the right is probably pushing 400 pounds though

I disagree Cedar....when a toad is bedded you can not get a good look at the animals mass. In order to properly estimate mass in the field one must measure foreleg + girth + width between the eyes + rear leg lenght when extended. This is clearly a trophy animal to the learned eye...you need to spend more time in the field judging them when they are not bedded down.
