Was that McDowell or Mingo? It's amazing what a deer can look like if they can get a few years on them. HINT-HINT.

That is a super stud. Thats a world class buck anywhere. And to think at one time it was probably a spike or 4 pt. "scrub" buck. Guy's, this is what can happen when they can live to 5 or 6 years of age and not shot when they are 1 or 2 years old.

I was thinking that was good antler growth for a bad mast year last year and a horrible winter but you never know. I saw one in the mid 90s on the wyoming/mcdowell county line that had 7 on one side that looked a lot like that except it only had 1 antler.

yeah i seen that on the big game forums a month ago said it was killed in nc. then a guy at work showed same pic said it was killed near eagle rock, va on jim justice land. i dont believe any of it. a buck like that and no one in pic? c mon its fishy but a beauty of a buck none the less

Also notice it hasn't been field dressed and no obvious wound area. It might be a farm raised deer that had to be tranquilized to be transported or something. A deer like that would be worth a bunch to breeders. Whatever the case, dandy buck. and yes, there can be deer like that here. The DNR is only interested in how much money it can make by selling tags. We all need to attend the public meetings as representatives of our various interests, be it hunting clubs of private landholders. We know whats best for hunting, and it's not selling a bunch of tags to support the DNRs fat payroll.

I don't think it was killed in wv from what I hear. We have to restrict not only the number of bucks killed but the weapon also like ohio.

If I would have killed this buck I would have my big A-- in the photo, and all you would see is the bucks rack and my big ugly smile.

Curious...would this deer have been taken on private or public ground?
Someone on the OH forum was touting it as a public ground kill.

congrats to bobby on great buck. those size bucks are far and few in wv. and always will be. i work and hunt ohio,guys at work always have pics of bucks like that taken in ohio.the deer are just bigger,northern deer vs southern deer. look a ohio big buck club look at number of pope and young or booners taken in ohio. age is not the only factor in deer size. if u think all bucks grow to that size your dreaming. genes food, food , most three yr old deer in ohio will be bigger than those in wv.of same age. just like most three yr old deer in wv will be biggger than ones in south carolina.just how it is hoppies56

Rumors definately grow! I wish I killed a 190" typical! I did kill a nice buck that looks like it will net around 158".

The picture is definatly photoshopped and some tines added or moved around on a nice buck to begin with. The buck in that pic would score more than 180. Its a hoax and there are always plenty of the floating around the net this time of year.

It should be illegal to Photoshop deer.
From: Babysaph

Yea thats what I mean. That is why I am skeptical of all huge bucks I see on here unless I know the hunter. I can't tell if a deer has been photoshopped or not but I am usually skeptical.
