    That is such an impressive buck. I hope you recover his sheds, it would be great to see some tape put to them. Have you ever found any of his previous sheds?

    No I have not found any of his previous sheds or at least nothing even close to this. His running mate I have his last years set but he had dropped and I can not find them. :(

    Wow..great buck. You should have a decent chance in finding these....how many different occasions have you been able to take photos of him? A couple, right?

    Good luck!

    I think I have bumped him 5 different times on this property. He was coming in from another property that I have permission to shed hunt. I sat on the ground with some downfall around me and he came to within 60 yards. I snapped off all these shots then stood up hoping for him to dart off and sheds fall. It was wishful thinking though. LOL I hope to get these sheds before anyone else does. There are 5 people that shed hunt this property.

    Well, I went out for a walk today and walked for about 5 hours. I wanted to push the herd to my trail cam to see if I could get some videos of some bucks. I was thinking of one buck and if he had shed and that would be HOSS. Then I got back to the back of the property where the second herd was hanging and then I spotted him. He still had a full rack. Here is the pictures from today and Hoss!

    I put all the pictures that I have of him all in one file and there are 94 pics that I have taken of him in six different sightings.
