I know when I walked up and sat beside a BC giant I killed.... I was speachless.
Just sat and reflected and admired him.
No hooting or hollering.
Just respect.
I suspect his dazed look could be his coming to the understanding of "jesus, I know what I have done".

P&Y allow for velvet entries to be scored with a percentage deduction for the velvet. These are listed for a one time book entry but not included in the all-time records. The velvet entries will not be declared World's Records as they need to be stripped and Panel Judged to be declared. Keeping the velvet on is a personal decision and I think Cody made the right choice as the World Record would have not stood for long. This new buck is indeed bigger.

I don't have the history with following specific MD as much as I do elk but I would guess 9 to 11 yrs.
Note his right side is busted off a bit.
May have topped 300" with a full hat

WOW! That thing looks like Medusa, maybe he got into a bucket of roundup or sumthang. What's amazing is that he didn't break much off, when fighting or tussling with the other boys.

Buck was killed in Oct so his chances of being busted up are low.
If and when a guy finds a nontyp giant best kill 'em earlier in the season than later
Re: New world record muley!?
I killed this one late October.
Once the rut started chances r he would be missing some of his junk.

Re: New world record muley!?
Bucks start sparring and risk breaking tines long before peak rut. Antlers with lots of junk are at risk of entanglement and violent efforts to disengage.
JMHO.
I saw good Whitetail bucks sparring hard on 1 October this year.
