*Whistles* Hey guys, that's BIG if I'm not mistaken. I always hear hunters on the TV talking about their 30 inchers and stuff. They're really big.

Ridn9high,
Nice reply, I like that one. My guess is a 31.25" buck is always going to be somewhat of trophy status. However, about eight years ago I did shoot a 30.5" buck and I had no idea that is was only a 2 point until I walked up on him, talk about ground shrinkage. I had been hunting with my pops for seven days and when I saw 30 inches I shot and asked the questions later. To my surprise he was only a forky. but he makes for a cool looking deer, how many people can say they literally shot a 30" 2-pt.
He won't score too well but what the heck, right!!!!!!!! For those that would like to doubt me, there is a picture of him in the photos section somewhere, I posted them last year so it is in the middle of the pack. But my name is scott holden and you can check him out if you want.

IT TAKES ALOT OF SACK TO BAG A BIG RACK
I believe you. Saw a forkhorn just like what you described a couple of years ago shot by a buddy of mine. Not only was it tall and wide but had pretty impressive mass. We judged the deer to be about 3 1/2 years old and couldn't figure out why it was only a two pointer other than genetics. He ended up mounting it for the same reason you said, no one would believe him unless they saw it.
