How bout some pics of these toads? The only bucks I have seen over 240 have been from Alberta or Saskatchewan. I have shot them in Michigan up to 240 and 190 in Alabama. A 240 plus buck is one hell of an animal. Seems that a 200+ buck in Alabama is akin to a "musta scored at least 150" haha. 204 Field dressed , should be over 250 on the hoof. Killed 2 years ago, I have a pic of the scales . The pics are after field dressing , thick little feller. That's the heaviest I've killed , but have a pile that field dressed over 160Lbs. Dang toad there! Id hate to imagine smacking into that thing at full speed on the highway!@!

Nice deer Squeaky! Still not of Festus's standards (250+). Festus, I hunted Society Hill, know the Torbert family as well. Big Swamp Hunting club, George Mann, etc. BullSchit flag is thrown! Back it up with a picture, you started the thread. You mean 240+ ðŸ¤

Exactly. This was back when you had to send film off to be developed and there was no internet to show off a picture of a buck. What were you going to do? Have a bunch of wallet size photos made up and pass them out to your friends. Most of the people I knew back then were the kind of people that would kill a 130 to 140 class buck and do little more than nail the horns to a barn door. I don't even know what happened to the horns off the buck I mentioned in my first post much less any photo that might have been taken. Different time back then.

Kinda mystified that 200lb on the hoof deer are so uncommon state wide. Three things to get size deer: 1. Age 2. Food 3. Genetics Also, too many people shoot the "it's a good 8 point, had to shoot it or my neighbor would have!" bucks. If that makes them happy, fine. So be it. But you can't get 4-, 5- and 6-year-old bucks - if that's what you want - by shooting the 2.5-year-old spindly 8-point.
