    Great buck![^] So good the poor kid will never do that well again. Peaked out at 10 years old. At least I have another 10 years or so to get one half that good.[V]

    That lucky little s***!

    I have killed over 95 whitetails. All my racks piled up together might equal that one rack.

    Nice trophy
    Although always described as a cowboy, Roswellnative generally acts as a righter of wrongs or bodyguard of some sort, where he excels thanks to his resourcefulness and incredible gun prowesses.

    Lucky little chit![:D] Good for him, congradulation little guy!

    He's ruined, he'll be chasing them big ones for now one.[^]

    I've never saw a deer that big any closer than 200 yards to shoot, and always on someone else's property.

    I lived down south for three years.

    Big deer and the south don't equate.

    German shepherd size deer with racks.

    No offense. It's genetics.

    This is an excerpt from the article in this very thread.

    "The family property -- 1,500 acres in Concordia Parish, which butts up against the Cocodrie National Wildlife Refuge -- is better known as Fisher Properties, and is noted for producing trophy deer. Since the property features mostly hardwoods and river bottom, many of the deer taken range from 265 to 280 pounds in weight and 8 to 11 points."


    Location makes the difference, the 18pt in this article was killed in Concordia Parish, Louisiana. You lived somewhere, for three years, it wasn't Concordia or Tensas Parish[;)]

    We do have small deer in central Georgia.
    I hunted down there for 20 years and killed over 90 deer myself, I was with guys who killed maybe 100 more.

    Average buck 140 pounds on the hoof. Small racks, probably half of those killed were spikes. Some six and eight pointers but small racks.
    I don't know if it is genetics or food, I have seen some pretty impressive results on the Whitetail Institute web site.
    They say that these deer have an inadequate diet and they lack protein.
