layin on the smackdown Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 (edited) I got this as an email from field and stream....This thing is a total hoss, and possibly a new state record for Michigan...If you want to read the whole story, click on the orange button that says "next" above the pic.... If you don't want to read it, i'll sum it up....a lady who ownes 10 acres was walking her dog in early february and came across this giant who they guessed had recently died from natural causes. They scored him at 257 5/8 (green gross) i think, but it wasn't scored B&C. Either way, its a total slob of a buck. The DNR guessed him to be 4 1/2 years old. He has 31 inch main beams and an inside spread of 28 inches. Michigan is definitely on the map now. http://www.fieldandstream.com/photos/gallery/hunting/2010/03/possible-state-record-buck-found-dead-clinton-michigan?cmpid=enews031810 Edited March 18, 2010 by layin on the smackdown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nickel Posted March 21, 2010 Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 that is a big buck!! but i would not waste my time in michigan hunting deer. i lived there for 28 years and was a die hard hunter and have hunted the whole state in those 28 years. unless you have contacts with private land in southern michigan its a waste of time. the public land in northern michigan may provide the opportunity for a spike or fork horn.

redwing Posted March 21, 2010 Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 Surprised he didn't accidentally get shot in a drive-by gang shooting! What's wrong with the deer in Michigan? They taste great to me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SchuLace Posted March 21, 2010 Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 Man. That thing is huge. At least it didn't get poached. I don't know what I would have done if I had the chance to shoot that thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruttinbuc Posted March 21, 2010 Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 They are out there. The neighborhood put QDM into practice and the results show up. Most deer everywhere have the potential if left to live a few years. Great buck that outsmarted the hunters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichiganHunter Posted March 29, 2010 Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 My dad and uncle are very old school in that the first buck that walks by is good because when they were 20's they never saw bucks or even deer like we do now so I'm trying to sell them on it....I've been doing it for the last 3 years.
