My dad calls me last night out of breath and stuttering saying he just shot a giant that he had to watch for 45 minutes before coming into range.

I had seen this deer a couple weeks ago and knew that I had a picture of him from last year (he made some significant growth).

He was still half in velvet, but had no apparent injuries to the jewels. I have another buck on trail cam from last week that was still half in velvet.

Just gotta love the character on that deer.

It is truely a unique once in a lifetime deer. I got to put my hands on it Friday night shortly after it came in contact with a broadhead.

The deer is about 75% in velvet and the antlers are "hard". There is an obvious lack of testestrone in this buck, velvet still on, he has no indication of a swollen neck and his hocks were snow white. The deer is at least 3 1/2 and his live weight may have been 160#.

I am NOT degrading this deer in any way.... it is an anomoly, given the chance I would have shot it in a second.

I had the opportunity to hold a true ...... "once in a lifetime buck". Thanks Eric!!!!
