I helped recover a really big typical 8 with trash after it was shot too far back with a crossbow Saturday morning. Out of courtesy to the hunter I will not show photos of the deer as I do not have permission.
I estimate the buck to score approximately 160 as I did not have a tape. Also guessing 5.5" bases and he carried the mass all the way out. Also estimating 24" main beams.
A few weeks ago I posted that I had seen a buck with a huge frame for Menard County on a ranch that I oversee. This buck was killed about 200 yards from where I had jumped him and looks like the same deer. This is a low fenced ranch and there is no aggressive management or feeding program. I think that this is an indication of how good our winter and spring were this year. While I did not open his mouth, estimating the buck at 5 years,

Any word on pics of this dude? It’s my first year in the area so would just like to see what could be out there.

Tried to download to my album but I am guessing too much memory. I will post on my facebook page. I ended up rough scoring the buck at about 150 as an eight point. I did not score the trash as I didn't have a tape.
Adios,

P. S. If someone wants me to text them a couple of photos I will be glad to do so.

Dang nice buck here!
24” main beams
5 1/2” of mass carried well throughout
Thanks, Partner!
I did not set up the shots to flatter the buck as we just recovered him. Kurt is a big fellow and dwarfs the buck somewhat. I found that our neighbor to the south has been feeding cottonseed free choice and I am sure that this has a lot to do with the heavy antlers and buck's body weight.
Adios,
