I just heard from a very reliable source that the buck was in fact killed by a local Nephi resident. Couldn't have happened to a more deserving hunter in my opinion. The guy that shot him actually picked up one of his sheds from last year. I can't wait to see the pictures and story in which ever magazine he decides to put them in.
He scores 225 and 4/8' he is 33' wide and is a 10x9. He was 218" last year going off his sheds. Last year he was a 11x10 and I put him at 31". Old_Tracks
I've just got permission from Todd to post a pic of him. So watch for it. The buck will also be featured in a highly coveted mule deer mag. Stay tuned! I've also got pics of another local hawg, that will be featured also.

Here's a picture of him from last year. This will give you an idea of what he's put on this year. Sorry the pic is so dark, I have better, but I didn't have any handy at the moment. He really didn't put on a whole lot more from 03' to 04'. He went from 218" to 226". But from 02' to 03', he really packed it on, over 40" of new growth! I'll try to find some older pics of him so you can compare. I'll get the pics of him dead, a.s.a.p.
Later,
Elk
