Pope, would a 200" typical bedded by a 200" non typical be topped? 8)
Maybe...but I doubt it. I'm not sure I got a picture of a 200" deer last year. There is one in my gallery that is close, but probably only a 190" deer. I'm not sure what type of growth we will get this year. It's a tough time of year to shoot them as well. You only have good light early and late. The rest of the day they are hiding and it's hot. If you have that picture, you probably already have me beat... :( What type of beer do you like?

I'm not sure I'm much competition. It took me a year to win it as there are a lot of great photos on here. I still don't know how M-Ray wins so much, I think he has an inside edge somehow... Maybe he's mowing Ray's lawn or something. :)
