One of the other threads got me thinking. I think a buck has to score 150" to get in the Alabama whitetail trophy book. I know not all of the bucks that qualify get put in the book. I know there are some people on here that score a lot of deer handle a lot of big bucks that are killed each year. What do you think is the real number of deer killed on average each year in Alabama that scores over 150. Which no doubt would qualify as a trophy in my opinion. I think there are a lot of 140" bucks killed each year but I think 150" is a whole other level and a lot less rare. My guess which could be way off would be 40-60 a year.
If you're gonna be stupid you better be tough.

I’ve scored a bunch of deer from Alabama from 130” - 145”.. Very few over 150”
Biggest was 181”
Next was 175”
A few 160s

I have always thought 150 is the majic number that makes them uncommon.

Maybe some killed in other parts of the state but the 3-4 counties I’ve hunted in my lifetime I don’t know of but 2 that I’ve seen in person that were probably 150 or better. Not saying they don’t exist but that’s all I know of

Well I have limited knowledge of the rest of the State, but the number of 150' bucks killed in Mobile County every year would be a number around zero lol (I have heard of maybe 2 in my lifetime). I know of one from Washington County in my lifetime , but not seen or heard of anymore and there might be 0 a year shot in Baldwin county. FIFY

No way to prove , however, I'd bet it's at least double or triple 40-60 statewide.

I think it's very small......start with this.....who on here has killed a deer over 150? A lot more than you would believe. Have you seen pics of BhamFred or TopCat's trophy rooms? There's a ton of big deer walking the woods of Alabama, even now.
