Largest whitetail ever!

[crazyfarmer]

Just because he has a mass of tangled antlers doesn't make him the largest whitetail ever. He's not even close to some big bruisers out there.

i just dont see that the fun factor is in that type of hunting.. might as well give them 20k and have them just ship the antlers to you mounted and save the trip

I suppose some folks would be willing to pay. You know what they say about a fool and his money. Frankly I don't know what some folks see in antlers anyway. Big antlers don't prove a thing and they don't taste very good.

Personally, I wouldn't pay 20K for that deer, his brother, his father, cousin and uncle all put together. I wouldn't even pay a rusty nickel. What good is steriod injected deer. Can't eat it.

lol.. true that... if I could afford a 10-20khunt, i'd have enough money to buy 3000 acres and raise my own deer to hunt though. LOL

There are a lot of reasons for people to hunt deer in whatever manner. Some of us were born with land in the family. Some have boughten land over the years. And yet some lease or just hunt public. Its up to the individual. I suspect people who do canned hunting really have more money than time. I picture someone thats working in an office year round and would like a wall hanger for his office. You have to admit some of us are very lucky to be able to take the time to pursue the trophy of a lifetime fair chase.

Some may not realize this but hunting has become rich mans sport, our children will see this in yrs to come, you either lease the land or join a hunt club, I know people that had to borrow money for a hunting permit. The whisper channel host all hunt private land with no pressure, make it seem easy, whispering in a stand and all the same time waving their arms like their directing traffic, I guess I'm lucky to not have to pay for now.
