[kwasky]

[Brambles]

[rifleman]

what a nice heavy whitetail. congrats on a monster. 161 5/8" ,,,, any story?

[cainer]

Big and heavy-nice whitey-my guess is he grosses around 165 w/bunch of deducts. but who cares-he's still a pig!

[uraarchr]

WOW.That's a nice buck!

[Bear Chaser]

I wondered if this buck might show up on here. Nice going.
Looks like he was bleeding from the ears. Did you finish him with unarmed combat as would Oyama?

[Stone Sheep Steve]

Dandy Whitey!! Congrats!

Great old bush buck. With the extra trash, I would say in the 160's gross

Nicely done

Great buck Ken! Nice to see a heavy one or two still floating around out there. Nothing compared to the rumoured 260 nt taken up here. Will keep you posted.

[kennyj]

Awesome Buck! Nice and heavy. I'd say 160+ NT.

Great buck, I am sure there is a story here....3 years. I would like to hear it if you want to post it.

[Springer]

Heys got some extra Brow points etc,pretty good Mass, My guess is 159.

Springer, you are bang on. I went down to our local hunting store with my partner and his wife and we had this guy scored for the local big buck contest. Came out at 159 and 0.

Not sure if my partner is going to post the story or not, but he let his wife shoot this one. We've had trail cam pictures of this guy for 3 years now, but he never made a mistake until yesterday. Looked like he got into a good scrap earlier in the morning. He had a hole from another deers horn just below his eye.

northern BC

[lostman]

Northern BC

[swampthing]

Nice buck. I had a local from that area take me in there on an elk hunt. I saw a 160/170 class mulies in there. Nice country to hunt.

[Mountain Hunter]

Cool, I've only been up there once, much later in the winter. Never knew that quality of whitetail was up that way. Good on you!

[Sitkaspruce]

Nice buck Ken!!!

Congrats on the three year quest!!!

Cheers
