Giant Iowa buck shot last night

  This Giant Iowa Buck is All About that Mass

Posted: November 7, 2016 -

  .....
Last month, OutdoorHub published an article for the top early season bucks. It’s November 7th, the rut is just starting to really heat up, and we already have an early favorite for the best buck taken during the rut.

    .....
Austin Pontier shot this giant of a buck near Osceola, Iowa, on November 6 and early rumors put this deer on a massive scale. Judging by this photo alone, this buck could gross score more than 200 points, maybe even 220 or more. Sometimes, pictures can make bucks look a little bigger than they prove to be, however, that doesn’t seem to be the case here.

There simply is no way to hide it; this buck is huge! The antler mass is incredible, and it’s throughout the entire rack. This certainly raises the bar on bucks taken during the rut.

Will this buck be an archery record of some sort? At this point, it’s too early to tell. We’ll keep you posted as we learn more. Congrats, Austin!

I wouldn't even want a big ugly thing like that on my wall! It would just throw off the rest of the décor!

I've fished down there & it's some pretty rugged country. There could easily be some more like that, or close, down there.

Mercy, pretty big target ! I just wondered in the article it said, says something about the rut are Iowa bucks in the rut now ? We seem way behind kinda, there was a spurt last week of October but we have not been seeing or hearing about much for bucks chasing does, our cameras either. I do realize the warmth is making it a night thing but man every doe has her fawns it seems, every buck is traveling alone, they don't seem worried about an aggressive buck around etc. ????
