vister Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 what, you don't believe MN is capable of producing brutes? Even some MN folks would say its not from here! he's a dandy, too bad he didn't have much for g3's and g4's, but dang, he is unique! 180"-190" ya think? very hard to say, maybe even 200plus, gross that is, i smell deductions. he'd make a fine addition to any living room!!

nik Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 Holly cow. What a giant! I would trade both of my vehicles and my boat for a crack at a deer like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
96trigger Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 I used to hunt there before my grandparents died and the land was sold. I still have a relative out there,but don't get a chance to hunt it. I'm very curious to see if it was shot on his land. He has one of the few real farms left between the airport and Rochester behind the old fleet farm. Lots of urban deer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james_walleye Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 It was behind the old fleet farm trigger, where the big velvet buck was shot a couple years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
96trigger Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 Yep, if you exit off of 63 at the airport and drive west, there is a little field on the north side, you can still see my stand from the road. All that woods is connected. Lots of deer there. Do you know the guy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james_walleye Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 I don't know him. A friend/co-worker of mine was hunting the buck and knows the guy. My friend almost stuck him last season in fact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
