We first posted about this buck in October 2015. It was found dead on the side of the road in Leawood, KS. Initial speculation was the rack would score in the 190-200 range, with some estimates saying as high as 212 gross.
Antler fanatic Cameron C. recently got to see and hold the rack, and he gives us the final details via a Facebook post:
211″ total bone…200″ typical frame…182 7/8″ net typical…27 2/8″ inside spread
Wow what a buck, and what a shame it had to die that way. Thanks Cam for the update.
Wow!! I grew up less than 5 miles from where this deer was found. What a rack, and also what a shame that nobody was able to hunt this deer, (bow or gun), because he was inside city limits. There are lots of wooded areas around here that hold tremendous deer populations, but unfortunately hunting is not, and will never be allowed.
