Iowa county, WI buck?

Unread postby SamPotter » Wed Oct 10, 2018 10:57 am

Anyone have the details of the huge buck floating around FB? The photos are in a picked corn field with a combine in the background. Looks to be a 185+/- typical.

Looking at the foamy froth it looks to be double lunged?

Rut would have to be going no buck like that would stand in a field in daylight for any other reason.

Great buck even if it was luck that killed it not skill.

Monster for sure.

I hope all is legit and if so congrats to the hunter.

Couple things just look odd to me in that pic there may be other pics that clarify but to me that rack looks photo shopped onto that deer's head.
For one, It looks funny where it's attached to the head. Secondly the clarity of the rack looks different than the deer's body?
Thirdly, how do you hold a bucks head up by the antler with one open hand on (I don't know how to explain it) the uphill side?? meaning wouldn't the weight of the head just make it flop right over. Sure you could do it if you gripped the antler wrapping your thumb around it ,but his hand is open??? How does that work??

I hate to sound like a naysayer and again if Im seeing it wrong I apoligize, but for now, till I see better pics, I call fubar.
