I know it wasn't me. I shot a buck that I thought was a doe and when I started feild dressing I was in for a surprise. ;D
My son shot a similar one. I'm not one to just look for the big bucks- I generally take what the good Lord provides and say thank you very much! Season isn't over with yet so I still have a chance at Mr. big.

So who has got the biggest?

Don't look for a challenge from down here.   There are species of dogs that are bigger than our deer. :)

Not I, I don't hunt. I did see a marsh hawk snag a grouse though, does that count? :D

Don't the deer in your area have green skin and bite back and taste similar to chicken?

Last time I went huntin' I was 17, got up in the woods, it was 4 am, it was warm and dry, and the next thing I knew I was waking up, the sun was up, it was 9 am and I was sore.    And the woods was full of guys wearing orange.

I went home and decided it was more fun sleeping in bed.

The last deer I got was four years ago, though.   Roadkill, thy name is Buck.   ;D

Well Moose hunter, you are most likely gonna win. That was one nice buck. We have until the end of the month then muzzle loading season so I still  have a chance to beat you but I'll have to admit it is not looking good.

Well Okie, I would woud have to say for THIS year it looks like MH has the biggest Rack on a deer but what are we going by in your question.  Animal size?  I may have that honor for now, or until Norm posts a pic of one of his Iowa monsters like we have.  My deer field dressed 225lbs.  Its the meat volume that counts, right?  ;D

isawlogs

  I wont win with mine ,  but I did get a 9 point that field dressed at 195 lbs

Didn't Texas Ranger have Rudolph skinned out and hanging with lights? I couldn't find the post but surely that counts :D :D :D

As bitternut did, using the 'right' equipment helps get the big ones home.  This deer is in a Deere tote.

I shot a 8 point from a tree stand at a pond I had dug just for the sole purpose of hunting.  about 30 yards late evening first day of season, there were two young does feeding under the post oak tree that I built the stand in and the buck was more interested in them than looking out for me.  The rack was a perfect 8 point but not too large a spread.  My wife ground up most into hamburger, mixed with bacon.  We fried the back strap and tenderloin, made bar-b-q out of one sholder and saved a whole ham for a roast.  I take the ham and season it with salt and pepper smother it in onions and butter and wrap it in about 4 or 5 layers of foil and cook it about 4 or 5 hours in the smoker.
     It is farm country here in southern Missouri and they have plenty to eat, it was really fat, been in someones cattle feeder probably.
