Killed this one last Wednesday afternoon. There was a buck in the area, last year, that had this big 3 point left side, and only a long main beam on the other. I`m trying to convince myself this is the same deer. Anyone think it`s possible. When I field dressed this buck his pelvic bone wasn`t normal, and had a hole in it big enough to stick your finger through.
One day, long, long ago, there lived a woman who did not whine, nag, or bitch.
But it was a long time ago, and it was just that one day.

I wish that thing was a giant 6. Man what a deer though!

I'd say there is a good chance it is the same deer.

That's a great deer. Can you imagine what he would look llike as full 8pt with those tines.

Me too PS. If the right side antler had matched the left side he would have been a little over 140". I`m guessing that is more rare than a 160" 8 point.

Great deer Tony. I'd say there is a very good chance that is the same deer. If he was injured the year before last and that resulted in the spike last year, then he may have recovered enough to grow a regular side this year. By the way, love the looks of the snow camo Motive 7. Sharp looking rig there buddy!

Great buck, Tony.

Let's see - the Moderators of the bow forum seem to have put mature bucks down, as did Smitty.

What are the measurements on that deer?

Thanks guys. Inside spread is 20", left main beam is 25", left g2 is 12". The 3 point side actually outscores the 4 point side by 5".

My Motive 6 is all black, which I like a lot, but it was a toss up between that and the snow. Great deer. Nice to see you around.

My son forgot that he had this picture of my buck before he shed his velvet.

Looks HUGE in that velvet pic. Looks pretty damn big dead, but that velvet pic really shows it off.
