No photoshop there, there really are bucks like that in Texas, problem is they are high fence and almost like pets. Half the time they have an ear tag. A 300" buck is very common in a high fence situation. Definitley not my cup of tea! Thats a 12,000 dollar deer. :twocents: Feed him out of your hand one day and shoot him the next.

Post by: TheFewTheProud on July 02, 2013, 11:52:32 AM: Call me what you want but I actually feel bad for those deer that are raised to grow antlers THAT big. Think how much weight that is. Unnatural. No thanks.

Post by: Jonathan_S on July 17, 2013, 12:20:53 PM: For me, whitetail dreams involve a healthy, alert buck sneaking down a steep hillside in NE Washington.

His antlers are a graceful and typical four point main beam with tall browtines. He's average height but wider than most.

or

He's a pig of a blacktail, 4x4 with thick bases and those two beautiful throat patches.

Post by: JackOfAllTrades on July 17, 2013, 12:48:01 PM: My dreams are much smaller. (and realistic) I honestly would not want a 'freakshow' like that hanging from my wall. Now... If I saw something like that in the W I L D... Not near Hanford or such... I don't know if I'd have the ability to let such a stag walk off into the shadows though.

:puke:

Post by: steen on July 18, 2013, 06:29:31 PM: Yep! They bottle feed the doelings so they are tame and easy to manage then let the does raise the buck fawns. 2-4% of the bucks are retained for breeding and the rest are sent to a "hunting" ranch and they AI the does. That just is not hunting..... I saw this on one of the hunting channels. They make it seem right when I think it is wrong. It makes me sad.
