That is a great story, and the years of pursuit, the recording, and the history, sheds, growing boys, was 90% of the fun journey. Sure looked like an Illinois or Iowa bruiser to me. I have 2 or 3, and one has those double brow tines
on one side.

Great family treasure.

What a great story Bluedog. It's nice that the deer stayed in the family.

There will be other big deer, don't worry about that.

Congrats and great job!

Here's my single side less pronounced double brow tine.
He's not 184 like double trouble.
He's one of my small ones.

Thanks for all of the kind comments. I am so glad it worked out how it did. I am also glad he dropped in his tracks and didn't end up wounded and lost forever. It has truly been an awesome season for us. Two to three years really. It truly has been a blessing to share it with my family and everyone else. Kind of like a poor mans fairytale.(we don't have a big spread to let them grow) I am going to have to start trying to food plot and hold them home more when I retire in a year or three.

May all of you have a similar experience!!!

The journey, the process itself was and is your family treasure.

Amazing history and story of a deer.
You're right non hunters and even some hunters among us just don't get it. When it's in your blood and your family can join the pursuit there's just no words to explain it.

Congrats to all involved.

Nothing quite like a MONSTER BUCK. Great story - I'm sure the family memories will last for many generations.

Bluedog, you should be very proud of all involved in this great story. Thanks for sharing.

Well I have now made my first replica. It was tough and time consuming. This way my boys will have a rack. Also plan on replicating the sheds so Dawson can have a set of those too.
