I was out hunting for sheds Sunday and I almost got ran over by the biggest buck I have ever seen with my own two eyes. I followed deer tracks or should I say highways in the snow/ice. They led to a overgrown field with patches of briers. I jumped a small herd of deer so I began searching for sheds there. I was on the phone with the deer hunter, who was a few hundred yards away, trying to describe my location to him. I then saw another six deer run towards him and then heard "I see deer" from the phone. They turned around and went running back the other way. I am now standing in the open part of the field and hear ice breaking, then a snort. I look up and see the monster coming directly at me. I start to count points and then realize he is in a dead run directly towards me. I scream like a girl and kind of brace myself like a linebacker would and the buck turns slightly at twenty yards or less and runs right by me. It was AWESOME. The deer hunter heard it all play out over the phone. Then jumped another buck who was laid up in the briars one minute later. Good news saw a MONSTER, too many points to count, bad news he still had both antlers which made our search fruitless. Sorry for the long story but I'm pumped. Is it Sept yet?

I spent about 2 1/2 hours hiking a spot today loaded with deer, saw probably 25 deer and found one matched set of nice 8 point antlers - except they were running off still on the deer's head. And not once did I feel the need to scream like a little girl. Sorry to hear about your Mangina Hardcore.

I thought it was kind of funny!!! ;D ;D ;D
I think it would be easier if all deer dropped their antlers at the same time! Say February 15th or something like that. Just wishing.......

Only because he was charging me and I was only armed with a four wheeler key to defend myself. I pictured all those points piercing my flesh. I looked deep into his eyes and they were saying "Whats up now hardcore???" I scared him enough with that scream to make him swerve around me. And also it was more like a MANLY woman scream than a little girl!LOL! ;D

I think the rest of us will need to gather all the sheds we find together to compete with these "young bucks." Great job fellas!!
