217" typical father found in 1986

[Deleted member 38069]

Thank you. I actually made it for him last Christmas. Cedar slab with a clear river through it with some memorable kill shot brass. My first deer, my sisters first, my biggest buck, his biggest buck, etc. And ivories and arrow from my first archery bull elk he was with me.View attachment 124013

I love this idea!

Awesome buck and uniquely beautiful table top.

Your first photo does him a huuuuge injustice. Thanks for figuring out how to post the second one.

Thought the same thing...didn't think there was anyway that deer was 180 much less 217 until I got some sense of scale with the other picture. Thanks for sharing.

Yea I seen that and I think world record typical is 217 3/8 or so.

I'll get it score in next month or two and let everyone know what it is.

Looking forward to the score, he looks a lot like my neighborhood buck.

Hey guys, little update. I talked with an official scorer and we are going to meet up this week or next week to get this old brute officialized.

That table,wow, just wow. Not only a great idea and beautiful, but what a great way to encapsulate memories.

Great buck and man cave.
