Bucks over 30"

[nphunter]

Couple of studs! Super wide one a forkie?

Ya, I have 1 shed off each of those bucks. Never could match up any of them, I picked the forked horn shed up 7 years after that pic.

Here’s a side view of the big buck.

I mean the 4x looks great to me, some super up and comer bucks too, but that super wide tall forkie might make the trigger finger itchy haha

As far as I know those all died of old age. There have been some huge bucks out there over the years.

Friend of mine who was over the top with this buck. I had spent some time with him on shooting/longer range skills, got him into a 6.5 prc and mils. He called me right after he shot this bruiser......made me smile.

The buck from my profile pic is a 30”er.. Here is a closer look.

 

[ColoradoV]

Are we running out of 30”ers boys? Has to be a few more out there…. @Travis Bertrand has one I remember to be close ..

Anyway a 30”er..

I want to be some of you guys when I grow up. Congrats to those consistently getting it done on giants.

I will play

I shot this buck on opening day of 2005. With the velvet he is a bit over 30, striped he is just under.

Dad and I shot this buck way back in 81. Thirty inches across the drop tines.
My brother and I shot these two in 88. mine is over 31 and his is 29 on the hooking cheaters.
I shot this buck in 2010, thirty one wide.

 

[AHayes111]

Two thirty one inch deadheads I found back in the 80's.

Rain, rain, rain here or waiting for this storm to clear so thinking past 30”ers again..

This is one of my favorite deer I have killed. Mass, mass, mass, giant g2’s, a 4” sticker, also wide.

Missed him once at 6 yds. (yep shooting straight down ranged 13 yds arrow traveled maybe 6yds) Then got him on an all or nothing stalk the last day.

Thats a bowtech cpxl 35” axle to axle..

You win the 30”+ in jeans thread! Maybe first in the open as well. Beautiful deer

I did have a camo jacket on the morning I took the buck in my avatar, It was opening day of archery and the temps hit 95 that day. That is about as far as I go with camo.

All bucks but the white dead head are from MT, all but two are from public land,

Here's another buck a friend harvested with his bow. One of my all-time favorites. Picture looks a little funky because I erased us out of it.

Maybe hope to find out next month!

Why the erasing? This buck was on the cover of muley crazy a few years ago wasn’t it?
