Meriwether county brute

[Big Tastey]

I am strictly archery only, so getting a good 40 yds or less, broadside & stationary shot takes a lot of luck! Not to mention clearing proper shooting lanes, wind & superb scent control. I’ll find out how lucky I am, starting on 9/10.

Close to 150. Short brows may hold him back a little…but that is a FINE deer for GA! Unless he was on a HUGE piece of property…I’d have to shoot him ASAP. Nobody else is going to pass him up & he may get ran over by a car during the rut ?. I hunted one like that for 5 years..until My neighbor across the road killed him 2nd week of November…headed to work one morning. She was so mad that “That durn Deer tore my truck to pieces”…”He was HUGE”..and it busted his rack all to pieces?. Nobody even salvaged any of the meat. I bet he weighed 250lbs. Still makes me sick! Take em when you can ?

My thoughts exactly. Roughly 800 acres of timber company land across paved road from me, minimally hunted actually, plus around 1200 acres south of me, which is also minimally hunted. But NO ONE would pass on that deer I’m afraid. I hate to shoot him out of fear someone else would kill him, if that makes sense?

 

[Big Tastey]

Thats a good one. He still looks young to me, but would get no older if I had a chance at him. Good luck.

I totally agree that he looks young. Probably 3 1/2 years? I really don’t want to shoot him, if the oppurtunity arises out of fear someone else will. That said, I own 120 acres surrounded by roughly 1200 acres family land to my south and 800 acres of timber company land to my west, both are actually hunted minimally. I would hate to pass him up, only to see him on the cover of GON December issue. ?

You heard the saying don’t pass a deer up that you will regret it later. We will see YOU. On the cover of December

Nice buck.

Be careful how many people you show that picture too. Nowadays you’ll have folks poaching, out-bidding your lease or buying the land next door to kill that caliber of deer.

Don’t believe me, look at what happened to Little Creek Bow Club in Meriwether.

147 1/16, lacking brows really is only thing hurting him. When you look for a deer in the 150s in ga it really takes everything

 

[BASS1FUN]

Yep

 

[Ta11tinezb90]

Id say he is atleast 140+buck!! Hope u slay him during Bow-Season....

 

[BlueNole]

Good God, hunt 'em down!

 

[CaptKeith]

Whether he’s 150, he’s certainly a beauty and would look spectacular on your wall!

 

[Big Tastey]

i have not posted anything on this big boy in a while due to no new pics. Here is last known pic while still in velvet.

 

[Big Tastey]

And then there’s this pic from Sunday October 2. Big boy was killed on adjacent property that I previously said was hunted minimally. I do not include hunters face due to not knowing him. Congratulations to him, that is a beautiful buck!

 

[Buford_Dawg]

Yep, that him, congrats to the lucky hunter... That velvet starts falling off and they disappear.

 

[Gadestroyer74]

True giant and congrats to the hunter

 

[Rackinup]

Wow! Bigger than I thought. Looks like he will gross close to 160”

 

[greg j]

Ain't that the way it goes!?........Don't ya just wish that buck would respect property lines and stay on your property? Likeyou mentioned, NO one would pass that one up.

Glad a hunter got him instead of a car or old age.
