Last week I was on my annual whitetail and black bear hunt in eastern Maine(tagged big 5pt, dressed 155lbs) while this monster was hanging in my barn in Athens TN. You have to laugh a little or you'll cry.
This is all that I know so far. This buck was hit by a car or truck last week in Etowah. The wildlife guy gives my farm caretaker freshly hit deer from time to time, and this one wound up in my barn. He supposedly weighed 300lbs undressed. The rack is 8pts and looks oddly out or proportion with his frame.
I'll get more info later today as I just got back late last night. Here are two pics. Hopefully I'll get more today.

Might weigh close to that with the guts in. Big deer for TN, no mistake about that.

Shot one of those one buck limit deer that dressed 267 and I bet that one is every bit of 300 on the hoof. Lot of meat to cut up on that one
