BIG Birthday Buck! Score?
« on: February 17, 2011, 08:03:45 PM »
Had a big set of whitetail I have been keeping in my garage.  My boys snuck them out and had them mounted for me for my birthday.  Someting I was wanting to do for years, and never got around to.  Any thoughts?

Guess you never said sheds.  Is it a set of sheds, deadhead, estate find or your deer???  Great buck nonetheless

crazy tine length... tough to judge that one from a pic...

i'm picturing each antler in my hands and they seem like a huge chunk of bone...

he's got to be pushing 170 with those tines... even with the so so 4s...

I entered this buck in the 2001 sportmans show in Yakima. It took 1st place in the whitetail comp.  It scored first place for Whitetail tail nontypical that year. 165 5/8.  I bought it at a yard sale for 20$!!!! Yeah me. :IBCOOL:
