This picture is of a buck taken by Roger Jarvis, coach of the 14U Banditos baseball team out of Houston. He scored 316 5/8” and was killed in 2008 in northern Missouri (Free range). It is still being researched for the books (where it was killed etc.). It is number 2 in the US. and number 1 ever taken by a hunter. The other deer that actually makes this a number 2 was found not killed by a hunter.
Boone and Crockett has an update to this story. Sadly, this one won’t get B&C certification.
Wow!
A piebald whitetail deer was taken near Corsicana Texas. Piebaldism, — sometimes called skewbald — is rare in whitetail deer. If it was a horse we’d call it a “paint” horse. Piebald usually refers to black and white coloration and skewbald then is used for white and non-black colorations. So, I would say the proper term to use here is skewbald. However, the pictures came to me describing the deer as “piebald” so I decided to go with that term.
It’s a beautiful deer regardless of the name you give it.
I found this in my email in box a day or so ago. Apparently, Stickers is quite the rage. He’s none too camera shy. Check out the story at the Lone Star Outdoor News and then come back to see all the photos of this magnificent animal.
I love the internet.
Here’s a picture of the new world record whitetail. It was taken by the cousin of a co -worker’s sister’s, uncle’s, best friend’s, son-in-law’s cousin.
Reportedly it will score 603 1/8 by B&C standard and was shot in West Texas.
Supposedly, this deer had killed a bull, two landrovers and six hunters in the last two weeks alone. They said he was in a fierce fight with Bigfoot when he was shot.
