200" typical zone 3

[james_walleye]

I've never seen so many big deer shot in a season here in the SE and this one tops the list. It grosses over 200" typical.

Thats the deer I referenced in a different thread. He looked even bigger in the back of the truck. Did you hear if they got a green score on him?

[james_walleye]

I had heard 208 gross, but not sure if that is fact or not.

what a stud. monster for sure!!! congrats to the lucky hunter. very nice pic as well, i like the back ground.

se mn has produced a lot this fall, but it produces a lot every fall. for many its been a sleeper. a lot of the attention goes to iowa and buffalo county wi. but the cat is out now for se mn.

I know they ran a rough tape across it and they were processing it tonight. I don't know if they had any more legitimate measurements taken. It was definitely the biggest buck I have ever seen that wasn't hanging at some sporting goods store. I really like that its a typical. It was pretty symmetrical when I looked at it, I don't think there will be a lot of deductions.

holy cr@pola!

Although I have to correct you James.. This one tops the list in SE MN this year so far.

[james_walleye]

Ya I guess that's debatable. 200" typical is insane. I've seen 2 other 25 pointers from down here. They are all world class deer.

WOW thats just crazy stuff right there.

[nonteepical]

haven't heard of this one...awesome. looks like that guy 's using that puffer bottle i seen an infomercial about.

[96trigger]

It was not a very big bodied deer, looked like everything he had went into the antlers.

[paceman]

Holy Moly! Those bucks are just giants!

[archerystud]

BUCKZILLA's!!!!

[Jeff13]

Wow those are huge and great pics as well!

[buckeyes08]

I believe that the second deer was shot in WI.

[96trigger]

No, it was definitely shot in minnesota. There was an article about it and some of the other nice bucks shot in the area in the rochester post bulleti.....errr yeah, your right, I think both bucks were shot in wisconsin. Must have been buffalo county.

[hockeybc69]

MN buck for sure.

There was a very similar scoring buck shot in WI that same weekend if I recall correctly though.

[ERdeerhunter]

The buck in question is featured in a certain outdoor publication today. Caption reads a 21.5" inside spread, green scored net typical 193 5/8 and gross 201 6/8. What a beast.

[96trigger]

When I saw it I didn't think it would have much for deductions. I was surprised at how symmetrical it was for such a big deer. Pretty awesome animal.

[ERdeerhunter]

And to think a couple years ago that buck probably would have died as a forkhorn.

Absolute stud... Guessing it was private land in Houston, but there is some public land that could produce a stud too. APR at it's best!

[96trigger]

I don't know the exact location it was shot, I was not there, but I am fairly certain it was not private land. I do know that people who were after this buck and had it on camera have land that borders public land. The pic on this thread was not taken on private land. It was definitely NOT in Houston county, it was Winona county.

[mnviking28]

All I can say is "wow"...incredible deer. Congratulations guys! Definitely makes me jealous.

[sticknstring]

That's at least 4 grossing 200"+ this year in MN. Wow!

[Musky Buck]

Giants for sure, kinda don't think APR had much to do with it, I'd guess they've both likely been legal targets the past couple years also, but none the less a lot of anti apr are singing a different tune as they grab their tcams and see more larger bucks, great deer for sure and a guy near my area got 1 that grosses over 190+, better reinforce the wall these boys get hung on.
