Some good genetics up there. Definitely some similarities to my dads 2015 beast.

Holy hell!   :yike:

One does not hunt in order to kill; on the contrary, one kills in order to have hunted. If one were to present the sportsman with the death of the animal as a gift he would refuse it. What he is after is having to win it, to conquer the surly brute through his own effort and skill with all the extras that this carries with it: the immersion in the countryside, the healthfulness of the exercise, the distraction from his job. ~ Jose Ortega y Gasset

That's one of those bucks that pretty much checks all the boxes.  Amazing mass, check.  Super wide, check.  Dark colored horns, check.  All around gorgeous huge buck, check check!  Congrats to the individual who got to notch their tag with that one.  :tup:

They got it out whole, a lucky morning road hunt? Any one know the story?
My brother heard the story from the hunter, not our story to share. Getting it out whole wasn’t an issue.

Down hill to the truck, my favorite buck!
To hunt and butcher an animal is to recognize that meat is not some abstract form of protein that springs into existence tightly wrapped in cellophane and styrofoam.

Great buck, congratulations to the hunter! The two bucks sure do look similar. Great genetics.

Maybe you could talk to your brother and ask him to jump on the forum.

Awesome buck. Can’t even imagine. Congrats to the hunter!
People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.

I heard he was sleeping and the buck licked his nose.😉

Crazy buck!!! Anyone here know Victor Moss back in the day? He owned the Outdoorsman in Winthrop before he succumbed to cancer. Neat guy. I got to see his trophies from a lifetime in the Methow and dang he had some huge animals. Some similar to that.
Vic harvested some nice animals in his lifetime, some shady hunts yes, but amazing animals…

I've never heard of the shady hunts. Back in the good old days? I wouldn't know. No judgments here or there. Either way, very large bucks that were very worthy, just as this colossus is!
