Monster buck was killed in Iowa on public during gun season. 237 1/2” green NT. Different guy had trail cams on public and blabbed about the deer on social media. Guys from 4 counties found out and were after him during bow season and gun season.

The story goes that the guy that killed it heard about the deer from friends and social media and knew the area well. Hiked in 2 miles, found a big line of rubs, sat downwind of the sign, and got very lucky.

31 scoreable points. Sorry for the bad pic and I’m sure more will be out on TBI.

There is a good lesson in this story re: keeping your mouth shut. I would take it one step further to say this is an excellent example of why trail cams should be banned from public during the season.
