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

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 ;)

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!

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

PHOTOSHOP!!! Just kidding, I just wanted to be the first to say it. I love SASK!!!. Wish I were born there. Those deer in that country are outrageous.
If you'd been born there, you'd be CANADIAN. Yuck. Much better to be American and just travel there. :twocents:

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
> Net typical frame - 207
> Total net non typical - 254 4/8

He's long-arming the damn thing. :chuckle:Dang it! I was gonna post that. I'm sure he shot it from the truck with a .22 at night - look how bloated it is.

Suspicious......no blood.
Yeah, all kills should look like they were done with a machete.
