I did manage to get this 8.5 yr old, over the hill, 37" bruiser. Shot with a 7mm08 and 140 Accubond bullet @ 240 yds.  | ||

The other one was bigger, but that one has a lot more character. Congratulations on a really special buck. Even the rocks don't last forever. | |||

Nice Buck! Is it just me or does he seem to have an unusually wide spread? AK-47 The only Communist Idea that Liberals don't like. | |||

Damned wide rack. Measure it for us if you haven't ok? Nice picture, he eating out of the feeder? Thanks for sharing, George "Gun Control is NOT about Guns' "It's about Control!!" Join the NRA today!" LM: NRA, DAV, George L. Dwight | |||

George, that trough has been there since 1950 at least, and hasn't been used in 40 years that I'm aware of. He's 37" wide at his widest outside point. I haven't scored the buck and probably won't, as I really do not care much. | |||

Nice buck! I don't think I've ever seen one that wide. Plan on getting it shoulder mounted or european mounted? "Let me start off with two words: Made in America" | |||
|
| One of Us |
Probably do the shoulder mount just because he's so old and neat looking. I do love the width though too. | |||

Where he is hunting are some of the biggest Mule deer in the world IMO..They are far and few between in a big country that's hard as hell to hunt..I used to book hunts there but the ranch owner stayed booked up 3 to 4 years in advance and thats a hard sell..I could go hunt there, but at my age I can't walk all day in sand hills, camp on the ground and get up at daylight and keep tracking...Biggest we got was 230 plus some..The hunters have the option to rebook before they leave the ranch, most do just that and it makes the waiting list that much longer..I think some outfit out of El Paso leased it and they are hunting it with 4 wheelers...I don't think that area can handle that kind of hunting pressure, I suspect they will kill the big ones out or the big ones will hop the fence to New Mexico...dunno? Nice buck Raider, congratulations. Ray Atkinson Atkinson Hunting Adventures 10 Ward Lane, Filer, Idaho, 83328 208-731-4120 rayatkinsonhunting@gmail.com | |||

Super nice Raider. Excellent character all the way around and the deer isn't bad either.  I think he was part moose. | |||

That's a HUGE one by anyone's measure.  . | |||

Wow, one of the widest Texas mulies I have ever seen! Well done. On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.
