Monster Muley taken.......

[prohunter]

that wide with weak front forks i doubt it would go book. that means its main frame is short. if the main frame is shorter than width you subtract the difference from final score. still sounds like one hell of a buck!

I agree. I was crackin on Jesses pic.

Can't wait to see the real one though. How about it Trinity River? We're getting impatient.

sounds like one hell of a buck. the #1 typical mulie in california is 195 7/8 length of right main beam 27 6/8 left main beam 25 7/8 inside spread 26 4/8 number of points right 5 left 7 taken in lassen county in 1943

Where do you guys think this hog was taken? I know of X12 being open, but what other zones are open that would hold a buck like this? The northern X zones don't open for another 12 days. I'm guessing X12.

[Norcalihunter]

Why does it really matter anyways. Come on guys lets get real. Any buck that is taken in a legal manner and is done so using proper ethics is a trophy. Right? A trophy is a trophy. Are we really going to get into a ''whos penis is bigger fight''.

A buck is a buck. Dont they all look the same? 4 legs,2 eyes,horns coming from their head and big ears. They all look the same lets not even check back in this thread to see if anybody's posted the picture. Congrats to whoever and lets just look at it all the same fork by spike big monster whatever they are all the same and should be treated like wise. Who really wants to see a picture of an old nasty buck anyways? I mean wouldnt you rather see a nice in shape healthy buck? When you look at porn on the internet do you look at old nasty fat ladies or in shape real young girls. Lets not be hypocritical.

[WCWORD]

Did he take the buck with a bow?

[Mel Carter]

You look at porn, and real young girls I had to throw that one at ya LOL!

Call me a big penis fighter, but I'd rather see a pic of a big buck than a small one.

[deerhuntr44]

All I got to say is WHAT A JIP don't get everyone hyped on some supposed big buck if you don't show the proof. Sounds like a fishing story to me.

[WCWORD]

Ever wonder what happened to Gore? I know its off the subject but we need some entertainment since we're all sitting and waiting for those pics.

[Backcountry]

Mel, good detective work... that's where I'm guessing too, or maybe, just maybe, X9A (over by the NV border). There were only four X-zones open this past weekend.

Backcountry, is right about everything and we may not see any photos until some hunting mag prints them..

Hey Duckman,

Where did you cull that info from? All I have is the CBH book but it lacks any rifle records.

Thanks, Backcountry

[Schoettgen]

Don't underestimate X9b, D7, or D6. The laird buck came from D6 and scored 319. I have also seen a handfull of real whoppers out of 7 that made Pope and Young. They were scored typical but had plenty of deductions. I also know of one Dzone 4x5 killed sat that was 27 wide. When you score em you got to remember, you just double the small side, you get a width credit, but it cannot exceed the measurment of the main beam. Keeps bulwinkle out of the books. Any buck that big is a trophy, but some deer don't book at 35 wide and others will score well at 25 wide. If your going to start counting all the points you need close to 240 to make book as a non typical.

Still waiting......................................

[Cahunter]

Hell yes I am waiting. I love seeing big bucks, at least get us the story and don't give us the cliff notes version.

I have see 2 deer, they where together that would go over 190 in california. I shot one that some guy said might go 180. I have never had it scored and have no idea how to.

Let see those pics

[RVRKNG]

Lets see em!!

[WinMag1]

ALRIGHT ALREADY!!!!!

The anticipation is now officially KILLING ME!!!

Did you talk to yer bud? Are we gonna get a peek or not?

Don't leave us hangin man!

HELP!!!

I can't take any more of this!

Wait!……I can't breath!……It's gettin dark!……Oh God!……I can't see!……I c…………




Just kiddin, sure would like a look see though.

[Trinity River]

Okay,heres the deal.The buck will be scored this evening,i hope to be there for it. The decision has been made by the hunter that no pics will be posted at this time.Once the almighty dollar entered the discussion,things got serious real quick .Cant say as i blame him,considering the potential dollars involved with this animal.I did get my pics printed today though... One damn fine looking animal.There are three people that have the ONLY pics of this buck,and i am one of those.An earlier poster purported to have pics of this buck......i think not! I hope you all can understand the turn of events here,eventually pics will come out,just not at this time.

[BDB]

I can definitely understand his desire to keep it quiet, and if it is as big as you say, wanting to have the first story run in a mag for a few $$$. I would think it would have to rank in the top 10 or better for the rack to be worth any major $$$ though.

Good luck and congrats to the hunter and keep us posted with anything that you can

[deerhuntr44]

I still say what a JIP

I've had women who were not as big a tease.

You could at least say the zone.

I would guess x-9a or possibly 9b which has that Goodale hunt later in the year. Maybe the early snow pushed a monster down the mountain for the opener.

Does anyone know? Its not like we can all run out and buy a tag lol.

A story would be nice. At least tell us who he sells story to so we can read about it, when you know.

[Trinity River]

If he okays it, i will post the B@C greenscore.

[WinMag1]

I understand completely………

Would've loved to get a gander at the beast sooner than later but,…………as we all know too well, when it comes to $$$'s "Money Talks & Bullsh*t Walks."

If his buck has a shot at a record score, he should by all means protect his interests. Besides the obvious value of the rack itself, there is the possibility of endorsements from every manufacturer of every piece of equipment used in his hunt. Everyone is gonna want a piece of the glory, that is, providing it turns out to be a true record breaker.

In the event it does not meet the requirements (we all wish him luck that it does) then please post the pics soon so that we can all drool together.

[Rookies]

Seems like alot of people are anxious. I understand this mans decision. Guess we just gotta wait guys. Thanks to backcountry.

Hey Trinity maybe you can email me the pictures I wont let it out.

[Rookies]

While we wait. Lets play a little veges. Who ever guesses right on wins like a pot or something. You have to guess:

1. Location

2. Weapon of choice

3.What else?

I say X-12, Rifle.

[deerhuntr44]

The chances of any California Mule deer making the B&c record book is slim and none. You got to first determine wether it is a Rocky Mountain muley or a California Muley, or another. There are boundry lines set up for this purpose. Just like for Blacktail for a Blacktail Buck to make the B&C it has to be taken West of I-5 in the coastal Range only because any Blacktail taken in the Seirra Mountains could be interbred with a mule deer. It gets very complicated.

However that still doesen't mean it's not a Trophy Buck

Congrats to your friend. Sounds like it will be the biggest buck taken in the state, but I would be surprised if it made any kind of record book

[deerhuntr44]

I'll guess

X-9b rifle

[chap_dog48]

This sucks, we all wait to here all these story from the season as they unfold to help us though our own season and then this. It like this......You won a million dollars......may be if we want to share........ oh wait I won a million and I'm not telling how,....... wait may be later...... no then.... I...... THROW US A BONE ALREADY!!!!!!!

[deerhuntr44]

He does not have the hunters permission to post any pics. there is nothing he can do. Maybe soon
