Idaho Record Buck....
« on: October 28, 2009, 07:29:14 PM »
Got this email from a friend today of this buck. He got it from his wife who got it from a coworker. The coworker claims it was shot by her son.

All I know is it was shot in Idaho, green score of 260"  :dunno: and posssible new state record.

Taken with a ML.

the internet is awesome.

:fire.:

" 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

ive seen a lot of deer grow there velvet into early october, so i wouldnt necesarrily assume cactus buck, as far as the fact that the hunter may not strip the velvet i believe it was his good friend that started the muledeercountry website who said that he was not plannin to strip the velvet :dunno:

I read somewhere that bucks with testicular trouble have issues staying in velvet too long, etc....

Massive buck for sure. Grats to him~

Here's a link to the story on this MASSIVE Mule Deer. http://www.muledeercountry.com/?p=1971

FYI: The article does state that the buck will not be entered into the books because the guy that harvested it will not strip the velvet from the rack.
   Also, apparently it's testicles were about a 1/4 of the size of a normal buck. With that being said, the buck did shed it's antlers every year (There are pictures of it's shed antlers along with the article) and grow a new set every spring. From what I understand, the smaller testicles, and resultant mix-up in testosterone cycles, caused this buck to shed his velvet, shed his antlers, and grow his new set at different times than you would expect this to normally occur.
