Anybody ever heard of the Minnesota Monarch? His sheds popped up in the late 80's (I think) and without a spread credit they scored 319 and some change. With the estimated spread factored in the sheds scored right at 339 making it the largest wild deer. The story about these sheds was featured in Awesome Whitetails (or a very similar magazine) probably about 8 years ago.

I saw a nearly perfect 8X8 that scored around 300.....then I woke up....no really I did see an 8X8 that would have scored somewhere in the high 220's typical. This was on ground less than a mile away from public hunting ground. He was in a bachelor group of 6 bucks in late summer. 2 of the others were booners and then some. Pretty cool site!

I stand corrected. The deer I mentioned above would score 334" with an estimated spread. Here's a link:

That's crazy....like i said i'm not saying your lieing it's just crazy to think about an eight that big.
Isn't it interesting that we hunters automatically think of rack size instead of body size! I wonder what the heaviest deer weighed.
. I think it might have got shot in michigan.

Biggest buck I've ever personally seen while hunting was a 200-210" buck. A good friend of mine saw a legitiment 220-230" typical 12. Could have been the next world record typical!
