That is a helluva nice deer :eyebrow: Mannnnnnnnnnnnnn!

Here's another version of the story going around, even though they are completely different, I'd like to know the real deal on it.
This one says he harvested it in Texas, and turned down the 13 grand from Cabelas. :shrug:

I don't know  :confused:

    Lot of green vegetation ( maybe early bow season)

   Tee shirt and jeans ( Not exactly what most early season bow hunters wear)

    No blood  (seen three pic's no blood on hunter or deer)

Pictures look authentic somewhat  seems like this story would have came out sooner if it was Wisconsin since it would have had to have happened while the vegetation was green.


If it was Texas it could explain the still green vegetation. Maybe a rifle shot since there seems to be no blood and the way the hunter is dressed.


I am always cautious when you cant find an official statement from the hunter or a local news group confirming it.

Looks like his dad or mom fooled around with one of'dem Jersey cows.  :confused:

He'd be gone in a heart beat for 13 grand. I'd get the cash and it would be displayed for ever with a plaque with my name on it.  :biggrin:
