I've seen a few repeats of big buck on here, but never I have never seen this one yet.
Anyone seen this brute?

If a guy found those horns as drops, it would hard to ever guess or say that they both came from the same deer.

I've replied to this a couple of times, so I'll do so again. This buck was killed behind high fence in Sonora a couple of years ago. Outfitter was Mick Chappell. It's ironic how the "no fences here" Eastman's guys use this slogan, but run the story as a feature in their magazine.......

That is a big deer. Too bad it was killed on a high fence hunt. Yeah that is pretty ironic about Eastman's.

Gotta love Old Mexico! Great buck!
This deer was not shot inside of a high fence. This was the hunters last hunt. He lost his baggage on the plane, only had the clothes he was wearing, and was wearing cowboy boots. He missed the deer first thing in the morning, and later that afternoon. He had given up, but his guide made him make one more try, and he killed it right at dark on the first day of his hunt. He had walked 6 to 8 miles that day, and his feet were trashed from wearing cowboy boots all day, but it was worth it. The deer grossed scored 238, had 43 inches in mass, and if the left side had matched the right, it would have scored a net 210. I was there, and I was trying to get my hunter a shot at that deer all day too.
LAST EDITED ON Mar-04-08 AT 01:49PM (MST)[p]Why hasn't it been entered in B&C if it was fair chase? I was told by a very good source that is was indeed high fence @ $17,000. Who was the outfitter? I was in Sonora this past January and my outfitter had a picture of this same buck.
Mick Chapel-New Mexico Professional Hunting Inc. was the outfitter. The hunt at that time was 6500.00. It was not High Fence. It is not in B&C because it does not make the book as a typical or non-typical. It is just one of those monster deer that falls in the cracks.
