From the article:
Rod and I got into raising whitetails back in the late 1980s, long before deer farming exploded (there are currently 800 of us) in Pennsylvania.
oh shit, here we go again.....
as for the deer itself, this is MY OPINION ONLY, and i don't expect anyone to share it, but it looks pretty uggin' fugly to me, and if i saw that out in the field, i would be running through the briars, running through the brambles and running through the bushes where the rabbits couldn't go; down the coolie and back to my truck - thence to home, where i would crawl under a table and curl into a fetal position, suck my thumb and cry.

CopidosomaHey, I wonder how long this discussion is going to be

I tend to agree about the fugly bit.
I'd want to shoot the thing just to make sure he doesn't breed anymore.

But if he was shot by a high ranking SCI member from a helicopter, he could be entered in the SCI records.

laredo kidNot only is that spike world class-it is piebald also!!!!!!

onefunzr2Deer farmers. What a joke.
What's next? Selectively breed for a genetic mutation buck with 2 heads?

Tasunkawitko, you are a piece of work

bja105Unfortunately, Goliath is still dead.

KSTEPHENSGoliath passed away at home on December 6, 2004.

"passed away"

thats rich.

CopidosomaBut surely his semen lives on. Probably in a lab at some ranch waiting to "improve" the genetics of some captive herd.
sigh..

Eland SlayerActually, Goliath was surpassed by High Roller last year. Goliath scored 410" before he died and High Roller grew a 418" rack last year at age 7.5. And yes, Goliath did "pass away" he wasn't shot. I believe he died from complications with the tranquilizer. And yes, you can still buy Goliath's semen for $4,500 per straw.
