Trophy Bucks

When people think of trophy bucks, they think of monster sized deer. Most people think that the trophy buck should be at least a 6 by 6 or 12 points with a 12 inch spread at least. Even though, the size of a trophy buck is different for everyone. The biggest trophy buck ever had between 50 and 60 points. With that rack the deer weighed 375 pounds. He lives on a farm n Pennsylvania.

When I got my first trophy buck, I was 12. He was a whitetail; he rack was 6 by 5 or 11 points. His spread was 7 inches. I know that isn’t real big for some of the whitetails up in the hills, but he was good for a twelve year old. I didn’t fully kill him but I shot him in the guts, worst place to shot a deer. One of the guys I was hunting with finished him off. I haven’t gotten a trophy buck that would even come close to beating my first, yet.

I agree that what is considered a Trophy will depend on the person. I can't believe that massive buck in Pennsylvania, though. How did it even move?
