I guess I might have shot that thing on the last day to get some meat in the freezer.  Probably would've gave it a couple of more years to grow, though.

Or I would've saw it, had a coronary infarction, and had to get medvac'd out of the area.  Whatever.

Yep, and he was hunting it during modern firearm with only a white dress shirt and no orange.  Just took his sports jacket and tie off for the picture.

I just recieved a picture on my desk of this buck from a different angle. The vendor who dropped it off told my inside salesman that it was a friend of his. I will follow up with a phone call and find out whats up. They are all serious Mule deer guys who hit several states a year.

I think this deer was killed in Alberta.   However, if it was killed in SASK, your buddy's friend would have to be a resident of the province as no Non-residents can hunt mule deer - period!

Alberta, on the other hand, is open to NR hunting - in fact, we have a 214" buck on the wall from that province from a few year ago  ;)

It's been on here twice. On MM there's several pic's of this thing from alive in the field to multiple shots of the dead buck.

And I'm pretty sure JJ's right about it being Alberta.

If you'd been born there, you'd be CANADIAN. Yuck. Much better to be American and just travel there. :twocents:

I got the same email.  Here's the accompanying story that went with it.

Cole's notes of the hunts
>
> Saturday morning- saw buck feeding out in field with 3 other bucks, watched
> him for over 1 hr in my spotting scope, got some pictures through the
> vortex, which are attached. I knew from the first second I saw him he was a
> true giant but never had him pinned at what he actually scored! I watched
> him bed down, went in for the sneak through the standing flax, Got within 43
> yards but when he stood up he walked straight away and I had no shot with
> the bow.
>
> Saturday night, went back to the field just to make sure he was still around
> and he was right where I saw him last. Left him for the night
>
> Sunday morning- Went out with Mike Gebhard and he was in the same field and
> the night previous, waited over an hour for him to bed once he did, we
> tried the stalk again, well we did get in closer, got within 32 yards waited
> a bit and he stood up and did it to me again, walked straight away! NO
> SHOT!!! My heart sank for a second time in 2 days ! What an amazing buck
> to watch at 32 yards!
>
> Monday morning - I had to be responsible for a couple days and go harvest so
> I did a drive through the area on the way to the farm and he was again in
> the same field! There was no wind so it wasn't as hard leaving him there to
> go harvest.
>
> Tuesday - WINDY and I was harvesting!!!
>
> Wednesday - planned on going to office in AM then harvesting in PM but I had
> to try and find him if I could, I was more then a little consumed by this
> buck! Well he was in the same field again, he was the most predictable buck
> I have ever seen, which I was good with. I again spent some quality time
> with my vortex spotting scope. This time I made sure I knew which way he
> bedded down so I would be broadside when he stood up. I left my truck at
> 8:15 and went for the stalk. Half way in the smaller buck with him stood
> up and ate for a bit so I layed down and let him bed up again. Well this
> time I got to 28.5 yards and he had no clue I was there, wind in my face,
> laying broadside to me, now just the patience game, he put me to the test,
> I was there for over 2.5 hrs kneeling in mud waiting for him to stand. The
> smaller buck got up again and milled around for probably 20 minutes then the
> moment of truth, he finally stood up! I was ready and drew and put an arrow
> in him!
> He didn't go 130 yards and 5 minutes later he was dead, I didn't get back
> to the truck till 12:45 so safe to say I didn't make it to the office or
> harvesting at all that day.
>
> He was one of those deer that actually grew as I walked up to him!
> Gross non typical score - 259 1/8
> Gross typical frame - 211 7/8

Look at the body on that hog.  That's a 300+ pound deer.  Or is it 136 kilos in Canada?
