Mega buck ... to big not to share!

Unread postby lynchpin » Mon Aug 21, 2017 2:43 pm

With the season just around the corner I thought I would share this picture of a mega giant I spotted this last Friday. When able, I drive the back roads here in Iowa looking for velvet bucks! I have found a few decent bucks this year ... but this one gave me an adrenaline rush the second I saw the body and the rack. He dwarfed all the other deer and there were a few 140's not far from him. This deer is not on my property and not able to hunt him. But happy just to lay eyes on him! The next night I took my wife's mini van with a bumper sticker saying "I break for rackcoons" on it ;) ... to be incognetto. I made my first pass by the filed... no deer... came back 10 minutes later... there was a guy on a four wheeler tucked into the edge of a corn field facing the bean field... ready to watch the BB show! Good fortune to him! If you zoom in on buck behind him... that buck is about a 3.5 year old to give size references.

Nice looking buck for sure.
You can fool some of the bucks, all of the time, and fool all of the bucks, some of the time, however you certainly can't fool all of the bucks, all of the time.

If you're not too far from there you may still have a chance at him. You never know what will happen once the velvet comes off. Plus there is always the rut.
