Sure doesn't look very happy having shot such a nice buck.

 

He must be wanted by the law, he's sure hiding his face:p

Great buck, my gosh

 

I was thinking the same thing. He should be ALL smiles. That really is a great buck!

 

If I'd shot that buck I would have a smile for at least a good week that wouldn't go away! Congrats to your buddy on a hell of a buck!

 

A Siman pose! A damn good one too. I couldnt even pull that one off.

 

Heck I smiled from ear to ear and my buck didn't even make 120" :D Good buck, odd picture.

 

That's why you should use flash even in bright sun light. ;-)

 

Ya know, before I read your reply that was exactly what I was thinking and to be honest, that is a pet peeve of mine... All of us should ALWAYS have a :D on our faces when we're posing with the animals we kill. I know I'm happy as a lark when I down one...

 

Nice buck.

"Sonama***** was in my garden."

 

I see this dude all over Youtube with his videos from around here, but can never figure out if they're from public or private ground. There's not a lot of spots in Lake Co that are private anymore and hold bucks like that. The ones that are usually adjoin large preserves which is why the deer grow so large.

Regardless of all that, what a STUD of a buck. But Mr. Hawg needs to smile a little more and try not looking so B-A all the time.

 

This is a VERY interesting picture Isiah.

Rumor has it someone took a 190" about 1 mile from my home.

I wonder if this is it.. ???

 

What a tank i doubt public land.

 

heck of a cage there.. dang.

 

Turns out the alleged 190 was actually taken somewhere else. I'm hearing somewhere near 176/Gilmer area. Should know more and have photos tomorrow.

 

I know every inch of Lake County.. it was NO public piece.

Has to be Wisconsin-ish border.. My guess is around Grass Lake road area JZ. Those CRP fields grow rampant along that region which is also dotted with tons of conservation ground.

Nice buck anyway. Congrats to the hunter.

 

I wasn't implying it was killed on public. But this guy posts a new video every week of a shooter buck pretty much all summer long. If he's got a private piece with that many giants on it, he's onto something better than we could ever imagine.

 

Hoping that they got that on video also. Those guys film everything and post them to youtube. Great buck though!

 

this post should be up on youtube today! cant say i really agree with the whole smile pose.... i never smile in ANY pic taken of me, hunting or not (just dont like my pic taken) but i see what yall are saying. cant tell you where the "spot" is but will say that he puts work in what he does. this buck was rattled in, along with a few others (8 and a 10), so guys up this way bang them thangzzzzzzzzz!
