The 1st thing that struck me was THAT IS A HUGE DEER! The 2nd thing I thought about how SMART that devil must have been to elude hunters and dogs long enough to grow a rack like that!

Good gracious that is one heck of a buck! :speechles
I'd sure like to see him in person.

========================================
Who's gonna break the news to LAKOTA that his dream buck has been killed?
True, that is definately a "Dream buck" for me.

BUT, to clear up the confusion ... As I stated in the topic I started in Dec. about this buck (along with the picture), I honestly had no idea what county the picture was taken in, nor did I know the owner of the picture. That is why the topic title was "Anyone recognize the pic". I figured it would bring the story here, to Woody's forums, when/if the brute was taken. As you can see, it worked.

I just wanted to let ya'll know that I'm not slipping around checking everybodys trailcameras. And I don't have wireless transmitters for transfering pics from other trailcamers to my computer ! :D

Hey Bugman,

Is it true that Butch was a new member that had just joined the club this yr.? Not to doubt his abilities as a highly skilled hunter, but if that's true, that's the definition of "begginers luck" on a new lease!

I hope they don't throw him out for killing "the boss-buck" the first yr he joined! ;)

I believe the Ft. Valley Plantation is in Buena Vista. Didn't they take the fences down last year? That very well may have been a buck that was eating good on the Plantation.

I guess this means he can position himself in front of the dogs better than anyone. This takes years of dog hunting experience to achieve. :bounce: ::ke:

Just kidding as I'm sure Butch is a great hunter but I just couldn't resist. ;)

Congrats Butch on a mighty fine deer.

definitely shows that any given buck that is shot during the season could normally spend the rest of the year miles away. I read some of the telemetry studies that DNR did on the Dooly bucks and it showed them traveling up to 20 miles I believe.

Call me jealous :eek:) but I hate to see deer like that die in front of dogs. I used to hunt on a dog club in SC and the still hunters rarely shot bucks the size that the dogs would get up. Most bucks that size aren't going to make a mistake this time of year....but dogs will push a monster out into the daylight on any given day.

I'd like to know the number of B&C's that come in during January... LOL


Bandy :cool:
 
Who cares about deductions:confused: Tommy I'm sure when he shot it he wasn't thinking about antler porn like some on here.:p

It would of been much more nobel if a sniper had of shot him. :confused:

Thats a HOSS! My compliments to Butch on taking a deer of a lifetime.
 
OK :( Man I feel better now. :D
Being an antler addict IMO is detrimentable to our heritage. But so is alot other things. So I'm not going to try to change your mind either. Would be a waste of my time. I'm glad you told me I could get over it. I was starting to get backed up. Now I feel super:fine: ::ke: :D

update: How did I miss this twice? :::: Great Buck!!!!!:)
