Nebraska monster buck
« on: November 22, 2014, 03:56:52 PM »
Made a trip out to Nebraska to hunt whitetails with some buddies from Wyoming. Saw a nice 150 class buck the first day in a blizzard but couldn't get a shot. Day 2 we had high winds and the wind chill was at -20 and the deer just hunkered down and didn't move much. Day 3 I passed up a 140 class 4 x 4 since I can kill deer that big around home. Day 4 the weather got nice and the temps soared into the teens. Passed on another real nice 4x4 in the morning while watching some canyons. Around noon I moved to a ladder stand on the edge of a wood lot. Saw a big buck chase a doe out about 350 yards away but they ducked back in after about a second. I knew it was a bigger whitetail than I had ever shot but did not get a real good look at him. About an hour or so later I see a couple does working along the edge about 200 yards away and acting like a buck was annoying them.  I could see a big blocky bodied deer back in the brush and trees but he was way back in the shadows. He finally came thru a small gap and I could see head, part of a big antler all of his neck shoulder and chest. I put the crosshairs behind his shoulder and dumped him. I expected to walk up on a buck that was maybe in the 160s which is bigger than my biggest buck(156). What I walked up on is a buck that exceeded my wildest dreams. 7 points per side plus forked eye guards and mass and tine length. He gross scores 191 2/8.  I can email someone pics since I can't seem to post them. No high fences, no bait pile, no giant tract of private land. Just hard hunting in the right place at the right time.
