great picture on a great maine deer. You dont see many of them around anymore. Hopefully you see him again, and post some pics if you do

Never saw him again after early september, but didn't hear of him getting shot either. We did get some pics and video of the buck in the attached picture, then my buddy shot him 3/4 of a mile away chasing doe's a few weeks ago. We finally tracked them down into that area and it looks like thats where the best Rut hunting is going to be in the future. Big woods, but lots are hard woods and apples. Saw lots of Does and a few smaller bucks in there through October Bow season. It took us a few years to get to that piece, but i think thats where we're going to want to be every year once the summer feeding patterns change.
BTW- the one pictured below went 204 lbs dressed with a 22" inside spread at the tips. What a brute!!
The kicker is, we have another buddy still hunting in the same area and he has another monster twice now that he says has a taller rack that also looks very wide. And to think i filled my tag on a freakin Doe at the end of bow season. Stupid!! I'll never do that again!!
