    Interesting buck that Alsheimer followed from spike til the buck died many years later. He was able to get so old b/c it was on a huge property with no hunting allowed.

    A great read.

    There's nothing we can do. Respect private property

    Not sure what you mean. No one is saying anything about not respecting private property. The article simply illustrates just how big and old a spike can get if no one shoots him.

    I'm just saying in General to some landowners that don't allow hunters to go in their land to hunt, tracking a wounded deer and not getting permission.

    This was I a farm in upstate new York. Really cool to see how old a buck could grow.

    Yeah no kidding. He has to be posting in the wrong thread. That article has nothing to do with tracking wounded deer LOL.
