This buck was killed this week in Knox County, KY. This county is about 25 miles north of the Tennessee state line, east of I-75, and due north of Claiborne County in east Tennessee. No glacial soils. Just a few old coal mines, cow pastures, timber, steep ridges.

And what does one buck prove? The Green Swamp in central Florida (terrible soils) produced a 190+ buck. Just proof that anything is possible anywhere.

It proves nothing, except maybe that his mother had a fling with a bull elk one night. That aside, East KY produces some big boys every year. Many of those big old coal mines contain a lot of food. The area also has a low deer density and a very short gun season.

proves that the one common denominator at producing big bucks is age!

Have you saw this bucks jawbone? Do you know how old he was?
 
Many times in the past, the largest scoring bucks taken each year come from the eastern part of the state. Nice buck for sure.

Can't get picture to pull up.
You can see the buck at this link Phil. http://www.heartlandoutdoors.com/tims/s ... 12_season/

If you want a more entertaining and controversial account of the kill, along with several KY deer hunters bickering over members showcasing all of their big trophy bucks online, thus resulting in more demand and competition for their respective hunting ground, click on this link and read through the numerous threads. http://www.kentuckyhunting.net/forums/s ... ox-co-deer

No doubt; his writing style, viewpoints and the heckling from other forum members appears to be about the same no matter where he goes.

I shouldn't even say this because I know it will come back to bite me.... but
I really hope he stays over on that forum.
 
Is it me, or does that picture look odd? The boys head looks way too big for his body, and his right arm is huge, while left arm doesn't look so big? I am not making fun if the young man has physical abnormalites, but I though the photo might be altered.
 
Very nice buck,but dang thats gotta suck major..His buck hunting days are done until next year..Major mood killer....
