Everyone loves the BIG racks of monster bucks, but I want to see the lesser monsters. So, show me your BIG racks of deer with FEW points. Big spikes, forks or 6's. No 7 pts or larger. Either before or after the shot is fine, trail cam or other.

What a great Buck!!!
I remember a deer like that from My past. No one ever killed him that I know of. He was a monster 6 point with long tines and heavy bases and a huge body.
It was because of that deer that I wanted to become a deer hunter. LOL

Yes, that's what I want to see. Nice buck Widow.
Very nice! :thumbsup:
Awesome thread and awesome buck youve got there Widow. I remember a spike in one of my areas with dang near 20" spikes. Cool and unusual bucks.
Here's a 3 yr old 6 point from a couple of years ago. The guys on the lease across the road from me got him. 17 1/4 inch spread.

This one is a 5 point from last year. Not a monster rack, but a big deer. We're guessing around 6-7 yrs old. He was a 7 point the two preious years. I think the drought last summer hurt him. Very smart and almost completely nocturnal.

My dream buck is a monster 6, very rare indeed.
had to pass an absolute monster 6 last year, cause the area that I was hunting in has to have 4 on a side. He made it through the season last year but is now 4 years old and ghost like!!!!!!
My wife shot a 26" wide Mulie forked horn with brow tines about three years ago. It was with a firearm but it was a monster in body size and had a big old roman nose and lots of grey hair. I'm guessing he was 5.5 to 6.5yrs old.
Widow,
That is the largest and heaviest 6-pt I've ever seen. :eek: Congrats on taking him.

Poor thing looks developmentally challenged. I like it too.
Here's a decent six point I harvested a couple years ago!!

My father took a 21 inch spread 230 lb 5 point with a rifle about 10 years ago. It was missing brow tines. Also taken with a rifle,
WE had a large 6 point around my property several years ago. I found 1 side of his shed and my FIL found the same side the next year. My Nephew killed this brute the following year and he scored 124 5/8" as a 6. Wish I had a pic to share.
I wish I had a camera with me a few years back. We had a local buck retain his rack into the Spring. Saw him traveling with some does. He was a 6 point that would probably make book, if you went for that sort of thing. One of those deer that you immediately notice how tall his tines are.
This is a big 'ol 6 my buddy killed on our place back in 2005.

Here is a 7 pointer that is fairly good size for here in deep south...has two small kickers so I could technically call him a 9....but basically a 7 pointer.

7 pts don't count Brock. He's got too many points for this thread. :nono: :D
I really thought there would be more long spikes or big forks shown. Don't any of you shoot deer that aren't 8pts?
I have quite a few short spikes and small forks. And I rarely shoot deer that are 8 points. I typically try to keep it around 5 points or less.
I've long thought that backstrap length/weight should be included in total P&Y scores. I've killed a few slicks that would have easily made the record books.

Thats an absolute giant. I'd rather shoot that deer than a booner. A huge six has always been on my bucket list.

This old Mule Deer had a body to match his headgear. When I spotted the buck across a canyon he was with several other and he looked like a buffalo in a herd of ponies!!! He was way past his prime and almost toothless.

then hopefully I will get one of his sons this year...they are twins or whatever you call them...littermates...LOL One has a tall forkhorn on one side and a long spike on other. his brother has 3 points on one side and a spike with crab claw on end on other.
Would they count? LOL
I think this is a 6 point...
