I think the 2 biggest we've seen on here from Washington are Link's 230 buck from 2012 and the Tripod buck which was right around there but not quite. Maybe it was 220??

one of the three closest three points I thought was a "class deer" at least.

Here is one. This guy was about 27 inches wide or so and had about 5" eyeguards as best as I could figure through the spotting scope. Those things were rediculous. I figured him at around 181. His back forks on his right side were sooo deep, left side wasn't quite as deep but still decent. If he doesn't net 180+ he was sure flirting with the idea.

Sfrenger, unfortunately someone already beat us to that one:-(. That is a calendar pic created using the rack of the mundy buck which measured 49" wide!!!  We can only hope he has some lingering genetics still out there.  I think about that buck Everytime I climb a steep ridge, or walk a couple extra miles, etc.  Just knowing that bucks of that caliber exist is all the motivation I need:-). Good luck in the entiat, I hope to see a write up and a nice pic later this fall!

Well, I have a dandy of a whitetail on one of my cameras. He's related to a buck that i've been hunting for going on 4 or 5 years now. Slippery little punk. I think I have a pic. hang on, K, here they are. If I haven't connected I might have to come back the last couple days of the mule deer season and see if I can't get this big boy.

Old news, but this was a buck I took a few years ago in Colorado.  Grossed a hair over 180 when Charlie scored him.  Don't know/care much about scores, but I understand it's generally tough for a buck to make that with just a 3 points on a side.
