I would never get sleep and probably end up in divorce if I had some of these deer on my trail cams. Goodness

Second deer I ever shot. Arrow directly through middle of heart (couldn't find that pic). Taken from Illinois cornfield.
I had 5 encounters with this buck back in 1995 and '96.
When I saw him, he was actually a bit better than he was when someone else got him in '99!
In 96 he had more trash on his bases and also some substantial stickers that are missing on the mounted deer. There are some little bumps that were legitimate points when I saw him.
I walked a lot of miles in search of his sheds, which I never found. I now realize that I was probably looking too early.
Seeing a 200" buck is jaw dropping. My 1st encounter was at dusk on a damp evening. He and a doe ended up within 20 yards and I never heard them coming. I only realized they were under me when my bow was being lowered half way to the ground. I still get goosebumps when I talk about him.
I nicknamed him Mr T after the farm's name...that's all the info I will share about the farm!

Brother, you just had to see it with your own eyes.
And picture him with another 10 or 20 more inches of splits and stickers.
