My History With a BIG Buck!

[MuleyMadness]

I'll post to this story over the next few days...(I did not harvest this deer, someone did though).

I found this buck back in 2009 and could tell he had the potential for something special. Here is one of my encounters that summer and my best picture of him. I had several encounters over the years and he turned out to be one of my favorite bucks I've ever had the privilege of watching.

A very distinct deer (can you tell the unique feature he has about him??)

He is a 4x5 this year, with his left side about to split up top into 6.

More to come...

The suspense is killing me. Can't wait to see 2010 pictures.

Same here. He looked awesome last year... what a buck.

That's a great looking buck.

Any idea what happend to his ear?

[Shedfreak88]

My best guess is his ear was froze when he was a fawn, at least thats what i've always thought

Alright Brett, you have my attention. I am looking forward to the rest of the story.

Alright back to business, here is one more shot from 2009 zoomed in a bit.

I'm curious before we move on to 2010 what you think he scores in 2009? Any guesses?? Obviously I don't know but am curious as to what you think he scores...cause he kinda EXPLODES in size for 2010.

I would guess him at 165-170.

[MuleyMadness]

Alright Dahlmer, thanks 1 guess is good.

Let's move on. Here is my first encounter with him in 2010. I DID NOT know it was the same buck initially, but you see later on that it's FOR SURE him.

He is on the far right, with his brothers on the left.
