    No where near 300". Still a pretty cool buck though with a lot of character. There won't be any 300" bucks on the ground until I get out there this next week :rolleyes:

    At 305 you'd deduct the abnormals and have the new world record typical.
    Absolute monster of an 8 point main frame though.

    I agree. Great buck; but, not a 305 gross.

    305"! Hmmmm... I'd be hard-pressed to see that on him.

    Great buck though.. but unless he has a 92" droptine hiding somewhere.. not so sure...

    Congrats to the hunter.
