I do to but where the Tucker buck wins is with number of points. That is all that gives it a higher score.

HOLY COW!! THAT IS HUGE!! Not quite sure what I would do if I laid my eyes on that in the woods

 

[Labboy]

I would say that would get the old blood pressure up a few digits!

Wow! That's incredible.

Question: Notice how the end of the closest (in the pic) drop tine is brown on the end. Anyone know what that is or what causes it?

Don't know for sure, but would guess maybe dried velvet, or where that drop tine dug in the dirt when it died, maybe?

Quite a few of the drop tines I see on bucks are like this.
I think it is because they don't really ever get rubbed on anything.

Dried velvet, very common on odd racks with multiple points and drops, hard to get everything completely clean for one this size!

STUD!!!!

 

[BULL MOOSE]

I would love to see some trail cam video footage of that deer.

 

[Mookyle8]
