Got this big bruiser with my father nov 19 near smith alberta..One shot with a benelli sluggun,3 inch magnum winchester slug about a thirty yard shot behind the shoulder...He was so interested in a doe we did about a 200 yard stalk and went into thick timber to get a shot at him.quartering away shot,he took a few steps and went down.Biggest deer I have ever got by a bit..Try to post some more pics,,nice I could share it with my father too..I heard of a guy yesterday who got a 24 point one by lac la biche ,,cant wait to see the pictures of that one!!!

They sure grow big up NORTH!! WOW!

All I can say is WOW! A big whitetail is a trophy that has alluded me for years and you got a couple of monsters. You da Man!

impressive--congrats---chris

Dem's Pigs!... way to go!

Funny, all those forked tines, like he's got some recessive muley genes...

That thing is a brute!

The hide looks muley also. Great Deer

Great buck. I have inlaws near Smith (Hondo area, Conrads) and I hunt up that way once in a while. Around Fawcett lake and towards Slave lake on Sundays.

I took a buck closer to home (Rocky Mountain House) that I think was young and had poteitial to grow into a BIG buck in a couple of years. He is not the one I was waiting for.

Beautiful Buck! and what's more important is you got to share it with Pops! Nate

Duffy's buck is very nice as well,,a couple more years he might have thickened up some.He is still way bigger than the bucks I have taken before last year though!!! GOOD JOB

Great bucks guys...love it.

Duffy4 is that a .300 Savage on your back?

Sure would love to hunt Alberta....
I have been up there during their hunting season.. but strictly on business...

saw some nice bucks in the back of pickups...

Butler:

Beautiful deer my friend!

congrats!

It is a .300 sav.

The first BG animal I ever shot was a bull moose with a borrowed sav. 99 in .300 sav. I have owned a lot of rifles and shot a lot of game since then. But last year I piced up a .300 sav. 99 and have been using it since.

I might get a chance to go up to Smith this weekend to help my nephew get himself his first buck. He uses a sav. 99 in 250/3000.

Have a good one all.

Robin

mb,

Those are fantastic deer! The sizes these animals get in Western Canada is just amazing...

I have got to take a trip up to Alberta or Saskatchewan and chase some of those huge bucks!

Congrats!!!

Regards,
Dave

nice bucks

Awesome, totally awesome... congratulations on a great great buck.

thanks again to everyone for all the nice comments,,going for elk for a couple of days maybe I will get lucky!!!I guess the deer here do get pretty big.,,,the biggest one I saw this year only had one antler but it was huge!!! Other one was completely gone,not sure if it was broke off or never grew,think the latter..Had him twice within 25 yards..Might have made the boone record book just noit the boone and crockett!1

Good job on two great bucks.
