In case yall missed the thread from the other day here is the story: http://www.aldeer.com/forum/ubbthreads.p...152#Post2073152Went back this morning and brought the metal detector. Arrow was under leaves no more than 10 yards away from where I found the antlers. I consider it a recovery even if it's a little late! Never imagined I would see those antlers again. This buck significantly outscores any buck I've ever gotten on a trail cam in that area.

Wow, incredible deer Glad you found it!!
How big are his bases? Did you rough score him? Regardless, that is a stud!!! Bases are 6 1/2. I plugged in his measurements and scored him the best I could and he came up with 162 after deductions. I'm going to get someone from the state to score him probably in the next week or so.

Definitely have a taxidermist restore the antlers and mount him on a plaque with the arrow you recovered. Great job finding that!
Congrats!

That's awesome that you found him! But where did all your hair go? That's what happens when you lose a stud buck.
