Congrats.
Just curious, why would it be bad for him to breed? Bc of the management process that has been in place on that property for the last 25+ years. There's nothing wrong with him in my eyes... I'm more than happy an blessed with this buck. On my birthday...had an awesome hunt.. And made the shot of a lifetime!!! I'll never forget that hunt!

Must be some monsters there. A fella with access to something like that certainly wouldn't pay to go hunt a high fence. No way.

I agree that he needed to be shot. Culling might not affect the gene pool, but this deer won't be eating any more groceries which will now be available to deer with better genetics. Why would anyone want to keep feeding this deer??? Regardless, again, congratulations.

Looks like a nice young deer to me. Any idea how old he was? Obviously the deer is old as dirt. I mean, when you have been actively managing for 25 years you don't shoot young bucks.

She much rather prefer a real man who can kill big bucks without paying to hunt high fence. Not to mention she isn't super interested in liars either. Sorry must have been someone else's mom.

Cull Buck, is a phase to justify killing a buck that has an inferior rack. It has nothing to do with management. Anyone educated in management knows does contribute genes too. You'd have to kill all the does in the herd to make sure you also got his mother in order to eliminate the 'BAD" genes. JMJ does your mom have a small yard too for breeder bucks?

JT, you've been caught here slippin once. Now you have to bring your A game. Once you get caught, you can expect this everytime. Check out the Timber2 thread. He got caught slippin too.

JT came clean so I can give him some credit there. He had the guts to post a picture of a deer that wasn't what a lot of guys would even consider posting. Not a problem with me at all. Kill what makes you happy. To me that's A-game.

This is one of my favorite bucks I've ever killed and he's nowhere even close to my biggest kill. Free range. It was my birthday and I made one hell of a shot and some of y'all wanna ruin it for me. I freaking regret even posting my story and pics.

Lol you obviously have no idea. Your all speculation. My "Big Pen" buck is the only deer I've ever killed in a high fence. I have 5-6 bucks in the 135-145 range. And NUMEROUS 100-120 range skull mounts. Most well over 200 pounds. Got pics to prove it. So don't sit here an try and act like you know me. I'm a good person and made a mistake and manned up to it.

People are always gone have the though in the back of their mins your full of shucks. You acted like a child and brought my mother into it, so I played along just to give you crap. I don't know you. All I know is you lied about a deer you killEd even said the management paid off. If there wasn't such great detectives here you would have never owned up to it and we all would have thought it was free range. I have no issue with someone killing a deer in a small pen, tiny pen, big pen, huge penumber, or whatever. It's not my cup of tea but I wouldn't have held thst against you to begin with. You just got to understand from now until a long while people are always gone give you crap about it. Most ppl like myself was just poking fun. Not being a jerk. Stop getting your feelings hurt so easy. My mom may have some extra tampons for your Manjina that keeps getting hurt so easy. In all seriousness if you killed the buck that far awesome shot. Happy birthday and glad you killed a buck on your birthday. Go check your scales though...lol

I call horse-shucks on the "25 years of management ". Bullcrap. Well I'm 28 years old and my dad got into the club when I was around 2-3. And he ended up buying the camp house and ended the club. It's our family camp. He's been hunting the same power company land since day 1 of getting in the club. Same land I hunted growing up and still hunt. Except when I take my all expenses paid trip to the Big Pen. All in all. I shoot one buck or maybe 2 a year off the property. And they need to be 4-5 years old and over 200 pounds. So I believe we do some pretty extensive select process on what bucks we shoot.

All I know is you lied about a deer you killEd even said the management paid off. If there wasn't such great detectives here you would have never owned up to it and we all would have thought it was free range. I have no issue with someone killing a deer in a small pen, tiny pen, big pen, huge penumber, or whatever. It's not my cup of tea but I wouldn't have held thst against you to begin with. You just got to understand from now until a long while people are always gone give you crap about it. Most ppl like myself was just poking fun. Not being a jerk. Stop getting your feelings hurt so easy. My mom may have some extra tampons for your Manjina that keeps getting hurt so easy. In all seriousness if you killed the buck that far awesome shot. Happy birthday and glad you killed a buck on your birthday. Go check your scales though...lol But I did kill it in your moms Free Range Big Pen though 👌 You might wanna borrow some of them tampons from your mom to ease the pain I dont have a Manjina so I'm good to go buddy. Thanks for the offer though.

I call horse-shucks on the "25 years of management ". Bullcrap. Well I'm 28 years old and my dad got into the club when I was around 2-3. And he ended up buying the camp house and ended the club. It's our family camp. He's been hunting the same power company land since day 1 of getting in the club. Same land I hunted growing up and still hunt. Except when I take my all expenses paid trip to the Big Pen. All in all. I shoot one buck or maybe 2 a year off the property. And they need to be 4-5 years old and over 200 pounds. So I believe we do some pretty extensive select process on what bucks we shoot. Where's pics of all these 200lb bucks that score so good? Because if the deer you just killed is 180lbs I've killed some thst are 350lbs.

So all these 100in deer you killEd were they all culls too or just weighed 200lbs? Bcuz I'm betting most of those if not all were 2.5-3.5 yr old deer. So did you pay some penalty fee or something for killing inferior deer on your trophy managed land?

We're the same way where I hunt we only shoot bucks 225 lbs are better no exceptions except for cull bucks US too. We're trained to judge them at 500 yards. We make them run just to add to the sport.

400 yd running shot damnit man. I've tried that once. I failed horribly. Swinging the gun to keep up with the deer proved to be horseshucks at that distance. I probably shot the piss out of a squirrel in the trees behind the buck.

I know I'm getting flamed for this but I don't care. Enough already! This is really starting to feel like high school. The kid screwed up, admitted it, let's move on. A lot of y'all act like you never lied before. I dare any of you to say you've never bent the truth, failed to give all the facts, embellished, hyperbolized, mis-remembered, or flat out with full knowledge and clarity about what you were doing, lied. There's a time for calling out and there's a time for forgiveness. I see this kid keep trying and I see a lot of y'all just keep poking him in the eye with a stick. He just wants to belong to a place where he can come talk about stuff with like minded folks and why wouldn't he, this is a great place to socialize with plenty of top notch hunters and top notch people. I know some of it is just ribbing and I see him trying to play along but some of y'all just won't let it be and some of y'all remind me of those middle of the pack kids who think you can up your stock by slicing up what you think is a weaker kid. I don't think he's all that weak personally. He's already put up with more than he had coming imo.
Congrats on your buck JT. Heck of a shot, would like to have seen you do it.

JT needs to go back to the high fence where a guide can tell him what to shoot, the distance, age, and estimate an accurate weight.

Yeap, I need some pics to believe all that as well. The cotton field on power company land is interesting. Was having the same thought. I guess it's possible, but I've never heard of it.

Must have misread it.

Never really heard of the power company selling land other than lake lots. I've done the bid process a few times, seems like you have to bid every year, but I'm not sure about that.

So all these 100in deer you killEd were they all culls too or just weighed 200lbs? Bcuz I'm betting most of those if not all were 2.5-3.5 yr old deer. So did you pay some penalty fee or something for killing inferior deer on your trophy managed land? Somebody pm me your number so I can send my pics and shut all the bs down. Can't wait to show the bully's on here how wrong they are!!

Was this the extra big pen? No.. I killed it in your moms backyard. I had to give the "extra big pen" a break. Smh My mom wouldn't give anyone who had to kill big deer in big pens a chance. She much rather prefer a real man who can kill big bucks without paying to hunt high fence. Not to mention she isn't super interested in liars either. Sorry must have been someone else's mom. Lol you obviously have no idea. Your all speculation. My "Big Pen" buck is the only deer I've ever killed in a high fence. I have 5-6 bucks in the 135-145 range. And NUMEROUS 100-120 range skull mounts. Most well over 200 pounds. Got pics to prove it. So don't sit here an try and act like you know me. I'm a good person and made a mistake and manned up to it. Now get off my back.. So your "big Pen" buck was the only one ever killed in a high fence?? How come you have pictures on your Facebook page of several different big bucks with the same "guide"? I think you have a problem with the truth son. Actually I think you're nothing but a liar.

You are the man Travis. Keep 'em coming. I'd consider that a pretty weak apology considering you called him a "liar" twice in this thread, or was that even an apology at all?

I hope this dude don't turkey hunt they won't be any left. Nice kills though you gonna have to get thicker skin. Once you make your bed you just gotta lay in it. At some point it will stop. But for now it is entertaining.

He's already proven he's a liar. I don't believe a word he posts. He even lied about the date he killed the 14 point. Made it sound like he just shot it on the 30th. It was killed on the 25th. I'm done wasting my time with the little habitual liar.

JT, you've been caught here slippin once. Now you have to bring your A game. Once you get caught, you can expect this everytime. Check out the Timber2 thread. He got caught slippin too. I'm certainly no expert but it seems his game a'int so bad.

And yes you should quit wasting your time bc your all around completely wrong. And to be exact, your making numerous false accusations and making up lies... So I think it's you sir that the liar these days...

I don't doubt he has killed some big deer. When Daddy has plenty of money, he can put you some studs. He can probably get your ass out of a bind as well.
Woah... My dad Is far from someone with plenty of money. We are just blessed to hunt some amazing land. Yes he pays a pretty penny for the bills around the place but he is not loaded and nowhere near rich or wealthy. So once again your huge imagination has created another false story in your head.

Is the picture of the cotton field the place you killed the buck? No that's a different field. All we have is huge cotton,corn, and soybean fields.

I don't like popcorn. Been putting a sick kid to bed. Haven't seen all these 135-145 deer. Jt does have some nice deer I'll give him that. He just needs to get thicker skin and realize he doesn't have to try and impress everyone here. Do I believe half the stuff he says...nope.Too many holes in half the stuff he posts. 400 yd running shot?
Like I said before I was just busting his chops. He's the one that got butt hurt. I wish the guy had 100 150in deer. It doesn't matter to me what kind of deer a person has. I'm sure all of us has stretched the truth on hunting stories before. One thing I will give JT credit for is he did finilly come clean and that was a hard pill to swallow. He needs to learn a little about jokes and stop taking everything to heart and so serious. Play along bud. No one is intentionally downing you. I was giving you shucks and you took it to heart lighten up a bit and roll with the punches. You getting all pissed and acting like a school girl is quite funny. The more people say the more you try to prove yourself on here. Who gives a shucks what anyone on here thinks? Idc what one person on here thinks of me...no one should. This is a great group of guys on here that enjoy reading everyone's stories. Just be ready for people to give you crap for the simple fact some of your stories are harder to believe because of your post about the big pen. I understand what your saying. But I'm not lying about my second shot. When he was on the run. I hit him dead on top of his spine. I put it right around his neck when he was running and squeezed the trigger. He dropped in the cotton and I didnt even notice. Until I walked down there and seen the cotton moving and I could hear something up ahead of me. Walked up and he was fading quick. One hole in the top part of the shoulder and then the chunk blew out the top of his back. There is exact details.

Congrats on the buck. Might I inquire as to what caliber you were using when you made the running shot at 400 yards. Had to have been a hell of a skint back round to hit him in the top of the spine when only aiming at the neck at 400yds. Im not gonna say you didn't make the shot because in order for what you say to have happened lots of luck to have happened and maybe that's all it was. Sometimes id rather be lucky than good. However with any normal caliber on a 400 yards shot you should have hit the deer in the azz

So the average height of a mature buck at the shoulder is 3.3 feet, I'm not sure how aiming at the back of the neck would have produced these results.

If the deer was running directly away, that would be possible.

At 400 yds running he would have had to aim at the back of the head. Im not saying it didn't happen, im just saying it doesn't add up. However with luck sometimes adding up doesn't happen.

Im not doubting that it isn't possible cause honestly in the heat of the moment and the big one is running away not many folks are going to have the capability to think to squeeze the trigger on a running shot, im just saying for all purposes if everything was perfect it shoulda been an azz shot

I'm not saying it happened or didn't happen, IDK, I'm just saying it is possible. About the only way possible, IMO, for a 400 yard running shot is if the deer were running directly away from you, especially if the deer had already taken one round. Also, from the chart I looked at, it would be around 3" high at 100, 4" high at 200 and zeroed at 300 and -9" at 400. A guy I hunt with has his rifle sighted in at 300 yards and actually killed a buck at around 345 yards this year. Of course it was not running

Zero'd at 250 yards with 150 grain bullet gets you right at 19 inches of drop at 400 yards. It's his lie though, he can tell it like he wants.

I shot a doe hauling ass at 250 yards once with a .270 and 140gr. Hornady BTSP. I aimed at the tip of her nose and hit her through the neck. My crosshairs were moving right in front to right behind her neck , probably a few inches below her head. Just trying to stay up with a deer running that far away was hard enough. I luckily made a connection. It was a god given birthday miracle. Wow! Just Wow! Well happy birthday I guess.

I don't like popcorn. Been putting a sick kid to bed. Haven't seen all these 135-145 deer. Jt does have some nice deer I'll give him that. He just needs to get thicker skin and realize he doesn't have to try and impress everyone here. Do I believe half the stuff he says...nope.Too many holes in half the stuff he posts. 400 yd running shot?
Like I said before I was just busting his chops. He's the one that got butt hurt. I wish the guy had 100 150in deer. It doesn't matter to me what kind of deer a person has. I'm sure all of us has stretched the truth on hunting stories before. One thing I will give JT credit for is he did finilly come clean and that was a hard pill to swallow. He needs to learn a little about jokes and stop taking everything to heart and so serious. Play along bud. No one is intentionally downing you. I was giving you shucks and you took it to heart lighten up a bit and roll with the punches. You getting all pissed and acting like a school girl is quite funny. The more people say the more you try to prove yourself on here. Who gives a shucks what anyone on here thinks? Idc what one person on here thinks of me...no one should. This is a great group of guys on here that enjoy reading everyone's stories. Just be ready for people to give you crap for the simple fact some of your stories are harder to believe because of your post about the big pen. I understand what your saying. But I'm not lying about my second shot. When he was on the run. I hit him dead on top of his spine. I put it right around his neck when he was running and squeezed the trigger. He dropped in the cotton and I didnt even notice. Until I walked down there and seen the cotton moving and I could hear something up ahead of me. Walked up and he was fading quick. One hole in the top part of the shoulder and then the chunk blew out the top of his back. There is exact details. So... Ya'll still have cotton up in the fields? They harvested ours months ago...
Did you know that Beer Nutz are over a Dollar...and Deer Nutz are under a Buck...

Dude - you didn't just mis-type that twice when typing about shooting a buck, did you? Stay on point with the story, bro.

If the doubters will think about it... It was a running shot with him quartering away and I was very lucky to have hit him. Man that's why we have questioned this, because we have thought about it. Im not trying to take away you glory and the kill. I would have shot it as well. Glad you made a personal record and lucked out with the spine shot. Did you hit him on the first shot. If so you better be glad you did hit him on the second cause you likely would have never found him
Only accurate rifles are interesting.

And this is how people justify shooting a "180 lb spike" smh grossly overestimating weight .. Thing woulda weighed 225 if he hadn't blew that 40 lb chunk of meat out when he spine shot it . On a side not me and JTs girlfriend both got a little choked up while reading this thread !!!

It's possible that he jerked off and got lucky. I always thought that was a consequence of not getting lucky. Well I thought it was the nicest thing I could come up with!

One factor people seem to always discount on long running shots is the horizontal axis. (Not taking a shot at OP, just always thought this was fascinating. Argued with a coworker who said the bullet got there so fast at long ranges it didn't matter.)
Let's use some good round numbers, and I'll choose a very hot round for published ballistics.
400 Yard Shot 130 Gr Hornady SST Superformance .270WIN
The average velocity (out of a long test barrel) for this round over 400 yards is 2,787.4/fps.
400 yards = 1,200 feet.
So, it would take that round roughly .43 seconds to travel 400 yards.
So how fast is a deer sprinting? Google gives us a round number of 30 MPH.
30 MPH = 44 FPS
So, a deer traveling perpendicular to the shooter, at top sprint, will move (44 FPS * .43 S) 18.92 feet in the time it takes that round to reach its target.
Also, the drop of that round with a 200 yard zero is 16.7" at 400 yards.
So, to hit a deer at an intended spot at full sprint at 400 yards, you'd have to lead it by 18.92 FEET, AND compensate for 16.7 inches of drop.
Wild, huh? The vertical axis doesn't seem to matter much anymore, does it?

I just want to know why the cotton wasn't bush-hogged........... Out of all people you need to back off... You've yet to come up with a true reason to bash on me... Not a single thing you've said or accused me of has turned out to be true. So once again let me correc you... The cotton had been picked.. Not bush hogged. There's still a little cotton left on the stalks. Which the deer enjoy eating the seeds out of along with the little hreen fertilized grass underneath. You obviously have never hunted cotton fields or you would be aware that you leave the stalks standing. Smh. Now please... Fall off my thread and go back to another thread and start bashing that one for a while.

How do we ever kill ducks that average 73 fps? I don't know why but that math doesn't apply to a hunting situation. Well I dunno about OP, but I generally pass on flying ducks at 400 yards with my Mossberg or Beretta. BUT if I had my 270...

That one buck is a pretty good one. Id like to see more of what he shot.
More interesting to me would be to see what his dad shot. 25 years of management I reckon hes shot some nice ones..thats for sure.
Post up some more of your and your dads bucks...wed like to see them.

He will probably just go get random pics of deer off the net and say he shot them or photoshop himself in there. Hard to believe anything this cat says. Your exactly the type of person these guys in my inbox are telling me to ignore. Your right ... I cropped myself into all them photos. How did you notice?

A quick Google search of John Travis Gibson reveals some interesting nuggets....Hey, we've all got problems and skeletons in our closet, but this kid needs to stop lying and grow up or go away. Can we get the same records on him that the aldeer detectives found on timber2?
