  I hope it is a "true" nj buck...Have to wait and see I guess Matt. Heck of a deer.

[BowhunterNJ]

Yeah no doubt it will be under investigation and scrutiny as all big bucks are, but hopefully it's all legit. Definitely one heck of a deer!

 

If you guys get any updates on it, please post it up here!

$3400 trophy fee + $500(two day min)+$50 in gas, your picture trashed on every NJ hunting forum = priceless..

 

Not my cup of tea but to each his own...

[BowhunterNJ]

JJoe, so it is true?  Definitely a preserve deer?

New York Mystery Buck 

by Gerry Bethge

What would deer season be without viral photos of giant bucks with little solid information to go by? Today’s installment comes by way of Rockland County in New York State—just a few miles from the city. Here’s the note we received with the photos and we’ll do our best to get the story as soon as we can. Sure is one heck of a buck.

“Taken by bow in Rockland County, NY on 11/6/13, barely 25 miles from the GW (George Washington) Bridge. Yes, it weighed 350 lbs. I count 14 scoreable points. The great hunter (my cousin's buddy) is ~ 5' 10'', 200lbs by contrast. This is the largest buck (by weight) I've ever known anyone to take. They get bigger,I guess....but not much...just about every year they take a few  (maybe 2 or 3) 300#'s out of Maine.  350 lbs. is just about off the charts for a whitetail...”
