    My cousin called when I was walking out friday night and said he shot this giant. He had been following this buck with trail cams and figured out where he was bedding and eating. The buck came in and he made a 20 yard quartering to shot (not the best angle, He knows but he didn't think he would get another shot and he was confident it would be lethal). The buck ran right under his stand and died only 10 yards from his tree. There is a video attached of my evening hunt with some footage of this buck in the end.

    Let us know when you kill one like that. And everybody knows that Wisconsin is the only place to hunt big whitetails.

    All the big bucks come from Ohio, everyone knows that. All Wisconsin hunters should really relocate to Ohio if they want a big buck.


    Congrats to the successful hunter.

    only the folks that knows that theres big bucks and puts in hard work in MN tags big bucks in MN. those that really dont know and expect too much. that thinks theres no big bucks probally dont tag anything in MN. im just speaking the truth.

    That is a stud of a buck! Congrats to the guy who shot it. And everyone knows that there isn't any good deer in Wisco. Illinois is the place where the giants are! Justin and Todd will even prove it to you!

    Naw kansas has the ehd and blue tongue too, definitely no big deer there. I think MIssouri right next door has some decent shooters tho

    Congrats to the hunter, that is a dream buck for sure regardless of the state of harvest!

    It was what was in his fridge. I guess when your chasing monster bucks you don't have time to buy good beer. :bash:
