I feel very fortunate to have actually seen this buck in person a couple of weeks before it was shot. I have been hunting for over 10 years and have never seen one so big in the wild. I just remember that I could not keep my eyes off of it for the whole time I was able to watch it (which was atleast an hour). When I heard that it had been taken I had mixed feelings about it. I was sad (for selfish reasons obviously) but at the same time feel that he may have been starting to go down hill. So I believe it was a good time for him to be taken. I would like to tell the hunter congratulations on a very fine trophy. I would also like to mention that I was able to witness him "passing on" his great genetics. Which gives me hope for the years to come. I can also confirm 100% that it was taken on public land and definitely not on a Limited Entry unit (no where near). It is so great to know that there really are some great bucks still out there on public land.

Congrats on seeing the live version of the gov tag buck. I got to see the live version of buck they dubbed the General. It roamed the Camp Williams National Guard base and surrounding fields. Very cool to see. I liked him better with the velvet off. He was taken on the archery hunt still in full velvet.

You stated that you can confirm that it was taken on public land. To actually confirm it I will need you to PM me the GPS coordinates of where here was passing those genes along.

Welcome to the madness!
