No way is that a deer. Its what one looks like if it runs into a duck pond after you shoot it. Reminded me more of a Coyote. Got 50lbs of meat when I finished butchering it. |

I ratchet one pulley and the rope to a tree, ratchet one pulley to the deer's antlers, put the rope through them and as I go down the deer goes up. http://i187.photobucket.com/albums/x274/projectTNX/deer%20season%202010/pulleysystem1.jpg Here is my first hunting video, the action begins at the ~1:20 mark, you can't really see the deer as I shoot but you can see him running down to me when I reacquire it in my scope. I could tell it was a lethal shot so I didn't put another on in him. I kept the scope mounted camera running and at the end you can see a few close up shots. I didn't want to turn the camera off as it creates a new file so after the deer is down kind of skip to the end. <a href="http://s187.photobucket.com/albums/x274/projectTNX/deer%20season%202010/?action=view¤t=PIC_0002.mp4" target="_blank">http://i187.photobucket.com/albums/x274/projectTNX/deer%20season%202010/th_PIC_0002.jpg</a> nice WV buck & video ! what kind of deer movment did you see ? as we hunt the same area & was the slowest action we have seen in 16 yrs ? |

A first time girl hunter shot him 1/2 mile from my house this morning. I dont know what she shot him with. My 2nd cousin killed a similiar 12 point on that same field last year. I can only take one buck in this county so I am done. I had that deer at 75 yards opening morning after I had tagged my 8. There is always next year! |

No offense taken, I didnt shoot it, I didnt score it and I didnt believe it! I will try and get some more pics hunted down. It has 17 points. I thought 3 were not scoreable points but they said the Taxidermist counted all 17 scoreable. I didnt bust out a tape on it I just looked at it from a few feet away. Didnt even put my hands on it. Here is another This is all of the pics that I can get my hands on, not really to many different angles. |

My sister's boyfriend took a buck Saturday that supposedly grosses in the low 170's, and it looks a lot bigger than the photo you posted. Again, his pic may just make his look huge, or perhaps the pic you posted made that one look smaller than it really is. |

just looking at it I thought this one would gross somewhere in the 170s. I have seen mounts of 200 inch deer and this just doesnt look the same.

I doubt they will ever get it officially scored. So we will just speculate...
I posted all the pics I can get of it above. Let me know what yall think. I could have illegally killed this deer opening morning if I was the sort to do that. I had him in my cross hairs at 75 yards. I was already tagged out though |
