... nice buck Matt... try not to be so affectionate in future pics though

Circa 1977

They look good to me when they're cut up and in the freezer.

Tremendous

Derek those brows are incredible, great buck , archery gear too!

Killed a few nice ones but have this picture handy , it was last years archery buck.

Killed him Nov 13 chasing a doe. 40 yard shot, watched him pile up about 75 yards from where he stood

I don't know where a single picture of a deer I have killed is. I have several of the boys.

All of them always turn out looking the same. A brown cylinder that stinks .

Really love these sleek early season bucks. Favorite time of the year to hunt whitetails.

Not my biggest, but my favorite. First buck with a flint lock rifle.

Not my biggest but by far my most memorable. Nov 7th 2020 he was locked down with a doe in a creek bottom. He just got done chasing a 6pt off an was rubbing a tree. After 30 minutes of snort wheezing, grunting an thrashing the brush I called him up out of it onto the hillside that I was walking down on my way back to the truck which was an overgrown strip mine field. The golden rod was so tall I didn't see him untill he was at 20 yards an he started to cut downwind so I stood up already at full draw gave him 2 or 3 more steps so he was a little more broadside an sent one through the boiler. He ran 50 yards an piled up. By far my best hunt ever.

20” spread, 195# 8pt. Lewis County NY.

Lots of nice deer pics. I like that muley elkguy. JoMiBro that looks like a wide heavy buck, and a heck of a shot you placed on him. Bowhunting is so much fun.

This is my best buck to date

25" inside with 29" mainbeams

But this one is the prettiest

Beautiful amazing Deer

Congratulations

Melanistic?

330 he was almost completely white, even his nose and inside his ears were snow white. He had brown patch on his forehead and a small spot on his hip. We had trail cam pics for 4 years but only saw him the one time

So there are some serious buck hunters on here, lol! A lot of awesome looking deer and great pics too!! Yeah you can’t eat antlers, but there’s nothing like watching one grow over the years and finally outsmarting him.
I wanted to comment on so many on here I’d add about 2 more pages, lol.
The one with the 25” spread and 29” main beams is a beast!
The albino had to have been watched for years to grow to that size!
Those early season bow kill bucks have some serious slick coats on them. I notice it especially when one is side by side with a November killed buck on the wall.

I’ll agree that the antlers don’t necessarily mean the most to some as far as rememberable, I have one that’s nothing but a 142” 8pt with a kicker and a 3rd main beam that sticks out just because of how it unfolded. He was seen and followed on camera all year and we guesstimated him in the 120’s. It wasn’t until I saw him in person I realized he was a lot bigger than what we thought. What’s cool is I grunted him to me from 300yds away. The entire time I’m texting my son and telling him about the deer and he’s like he ain’t gonna make 140” and I’m telling him I’m looking at the deer in person!! We went back and forth the entire time this buck is “BullDawg” walking to me. It was a perfect setup, in a climber about 25ft up, the sun at my back, and the deer closing the distance. My last text to my son about what he would score was, “Well, we’re about to see firsthand what he scores because by the time you read this, he’ll be dead!”
I was shaking so bad after the shot I had to wait 10min to climb down. The entire time my son is blowing up my phone asking for pics, lol.
What’s cool is I had pics from velvet to the day I shot him. Even had him on video walking by grunting and all I can call it is growling while on the trail of a doe.
