I have spent a lot of time in unit 25, Killed my 1st muzzleloader deer in that unit. I have spent most of my time up by Sheep mtn. at the north end of the unit. Lots of elk too. Depending on snow by 3rd season I would still go up there. If too much snow I would look at the blm on the east...

Exactly, I was not even thinking about score with that deer. And am very fortunate to be able to hunt deer like these.

That was my 2020 archery buck. One of the hardest and most time I have spent chasing a single deer ever. My son and I each had archery tags that year and it was both of our "target buck". He is 34 1/2" wide, and mass everywhere, he doesnt score all that great because of tine length but no...

Happy with my buck so I thought I'd share him 1 more time. Had to put him in the house (wife insisted) so I brought a friend in with him. Some pics from taxidermist shop.

Here are 4, still waiting on last falls.

Mild winter here in eastern Colo, Deer look good, whats left of them.

Honestly, nothing to do with ego here. Ive always just said what a deer grossed. Until I got this one. 226 5/8 or 213 3/8 is a big damm deer. Net or gross. Im more curious to what everyone considers score on here. The B/C scorers that scored him couldn't give 2 shits about gross, net...

Yes, the score when I got him was buddies scoring him in my shop, pretty sure I said, "unofficial" but I'd have to go back and look. I took him to an oficial B/C scorer because I wanted to know.

My 2023 buck grossed 226 5/8 "official" and netted 13 2/8" less. Who goes by gross and who goes by net? My opinion, even before getting this deer is nets are for fishing. Score was B/C too. I know there are a few more scoring systems as well. Just wanting opinions on gross, net...

My plains deer last november, best one for me by a long shot. Green scored 234 gross 219 net.

Horsecorn, I dont blame you a bit for letting him go for the chance to see what he could be next year. If your grandson would have shot him, there would be 0% chance of seeing what he could have been. Sure it sucks that he left and was taken, but thats part of the game. Sometimes it...

I thought of this deer when I saw this thread, good to see you on here.

Nice work and nice buck. My taxidermist is in S/W Nebraska and he says it's been tough this year. To find him on public is great.

It was rifle. I volunteer for a deal where we take wounded vets hunting and spent the 1st half of the season doing that, never even knowing this guy existed. When they filled their tags I started looking for me. A couple years ago I got a just over 200" gross mule deer with my bow so I was...

Yes, plains deer.

Thank you, I am kinda amazed but I didnt start shaking until he was on the ground. Still am.

Thanks for sharing that story, I have seen a few like that too. See once and done, only to be in the Mule Deer dreams. Thought this one might turn out like that as well, Saw him twice before (during season) but always moving, quickly and longs ways away. 3rd time was the charm.

Thank you, Colorado

Thank you, much appreciated

Feel lucky to even see a deer like this let alone have a shot at him. Doubtful I will ever top this

Best deer to date. Green (rough) score 234 gross 219 net. DIY but I do have access to some stellar private land.
