Dustin sent this photo of the huge buck his buddy Nick shot with his PSE bow near Aberdeen the weekend after opening archery 2013. It was scored unofficially at 172.5”. Will get the hunt report soon…way to go Nick, that’s one fine looking brute.
Happy Thanksgiving to all! Thought this picture was very applicable for both Thanksgiving and #TBT (Throw Back Thursday). Me with a big ole VA turkey back in the day. I hope you all have a fantastic day, and good luck with any hunting you might be doing this weekend!
My friend Grant Kuypers of Buck Paradise guides American hunters to some amazing bucks each year…and this season he even got to hunt a day himself. Grant and his son Ian had been getting trail cam pictures of this unique deer living tight behind their house. Grant’s land is in the farmland area of Saskatchewan, miles south of the Northern Provincial Forest where I and other Americans must hunt. Only the locals can hunt the farmland. Grant showed me this cam picture when I was up there 10 days ago and said, “I really want Ian to get this buck.” Well, Ian was out of town one day two weeks ago when this giant showed back up.

Hey Mike, Huge fan of the show and site. This buck is about as good as it gets here at home (in central Arkansas). This buck was taken by the father of a friend of mine. The pic has been posted on some hunting sites here in Arkansas and was killed just about 3-4 short miles down the highway from my house. Thanks and keep doing what you do! --Ca'Lyn Zachary This is one of the coolest bucks I’ve seen this year, love those junked-up beams, thanks for sharing!
One of our BIG DEER bloggers is hunting this buck. I am happily sworn to secrecy as to name and location…until he or she hopefully gets him: Mike: I've been wanting to share these pictures for months. I know you'll love this buck, as it's a double drop. He has a typical 7x7 frame. As far as I can tell, he's got a 31-point rack that will gross 218". I've had him several times with marginal shot opportunities but have not been able to seal the deal. I’ll keep you posted. Good luck to this hunter, this is the best deer I’ve seen this year. My dream buck, to shoot a deer like that would make my hunting life complete. P.S.- Good [...]
