[buckmaster_wa]

Has anyone heard of the 224" governors tag buck that was killed. I heard that Les Schwabs granddaughter had the tag?

[WAmuleyHunter]

yup and yup. not sure on the score but LONG tines for sure.

[MuleySniper]

I saw it somewhere. Maybe MM or Ifish... A quick search turned up nothing.  Its a pig buck though.

Good find, pretty sure it is.. found this to help back it up. Definitely the same rack. A lot of folks are saying John Cole was the guide...

I hunted years ago with John Cole, that guy can find some huge bucks in Eastern Oregon.

Awesome buck, beautiful country.  Anybody know the approximate area where it was killed?  Public or private?

[Widgeondeke]

Sure hope he was able to share those genetics.

Holy Schmidt.

Awesome buck. Can I be Les Schwabs grandson.

I'd guess John Day area. Just a guess but that's where John Cole hunts. I know he has access to a lot of private land so I would also guess that it was private. But again, nothing but a guess.

I hope she was too. Oh- oops you said 'he." I guess you meant the buck and not the girl?     

[Gutpile]

That thing is awesome. Someday..... I hope.

I have a buddy who lives next to Les's place in Prineville and had hunted with Les and his relatives.  He has been saying for years that when he dies he wants to be reincarnated at Les Schwab's grandson.  The guy has every toy known to man and hunts & fishes all over the place.
Awaesome buck by the way!

[buckmaster_wa]

Maybe I can become Les Schwabs Grandson. Just gotta sweet talk the Granddaughter.  

[ser300wsm]

Man that is sure one awesome buck, holy cow !!!! 

[Skillet]

That buck is just ridiculous. 

[shedcrazy]

  What a hog!!

[Huntboy]

That thing is huge.

Looks like John Day country to me too....

My truck is needing some new tires.  Lots and lots of them.

John Cole has the same picture of the deer on his website, it doesn't tell the story (Governor tag or not) but the pic is there.  http://www.outfitterjohncole.com/mule_deer_hunts.php

[Boss .300 winmag]

Thats one lucky lady.

[Huntbear]

Heck, that deer saw her and just fell over , totally twitterpated.. 

Awesome deer!

[quadrafire]

I would think that the Schwab family still has lots of land. They used to anyhow. That area I know holds some big deer. They used to graze alot of cattle, maybe that keeps the deer thinned out??
