    This buck was taken yesterday just down the road from me. Never saw it myself. Would certainly have remembered it if I had. Green gross just under 168. 22 inch inside spread. 26 inch main beams. A Jersey Giant.

    Central West side. Monmouth holds both typical and non-typcial records I believe. Closer to you than to me! That buck will be the highest scoring crossbow typical if it holds up under the tape. We do have some awesome terrain here. Delaware River carved up the countryside nicely.

    WOW, pictures of that there beast are why I passed on a little four pointer yesterday. This lil buck came within 15 feet of me, I raised up the bow and in my mind went bang. Let him live to grow a year bigger. But man oh man, if that beast had trodded by.............................

    He doesn't look like a huge bodied deer or is the huge rack throwing me off.
    Guy has to be on cloud nine holding that buck
