Big TN. Buck
« on: November 17, 2016, 06:18:50 am »
I know most have seen this or at least heard of it but anyway here it is again. Killed in Sumner County, TN. This is about 25 miles North of my place. If it holds 335 inches it will be the new World record non typical. The cam picture came from someone else that seen it on the TWRA web site. [ bet he was sad]The guy who killed it is a farmer and almost ran over it combining corn. It was bedded in the standing corn and wouldn't move until they were right on top of him. He set up beside the cut field the next morning and shot him with a muzzleloader. Man if this hold up you won't be able to get close to that area to hunt for years to come, you know folks will come from everywhere. ::) hate to live there. ;) :)

Pretty impressive cluster of antler there. Interesting how many of the points and stickers grow off of the tines instead of the main beams. Maybe some his offspring will migrate down to your neck of the woods Pappy.

That's a lot of knife handles!  That will score very high.  Especially for a main frame 8 point rack.

I forgot how many scoreable points they said it had and don't feel like counting but said it scored 335 inches green, non typical and probably loose an inch or 2 when it dries in 60 days. Either way it is a hos and I would probably fall over if I seen it in the woods. ;) :)

Here's another picture of it.  TWRA has it green scored at 313-2/8 from what I've read.

I remember driving up 13 out of Clarksville a few years back.
I thought I got to be careful. It was early morning and the
territory was prime for white tail. Sprawlling agriculture with
plenty of water and wood lots. Looked like it would be prime
for yotes too.
