Wyoming's Walk In Area program, which is a program designed to provide public hunting on private lands, is reportedly what enabled Todd Collick to harvest this great pronghorn. It was green scored at 87-2/8, and could be one of the larger pronghorns taken in Wyoming last fall.

Willy Morton scored big on what he reports as his second deer ever. Taken near Chase, British Columbia, this buck was only about 40 yards away and in full rut when Willy took him with a shot from his .30-06. He reports the deer may score in the high 180s.

Tom Hoffman was hunting in Mexico this past winter and took the mule deer of a lifetime - and with a bow. This buck looks like it has a great chance to make B&C's minimum entry requirements. Mexico continues to put out some incredible mule deer, especially in the past ten years.

Jason Boyett was hunting in Pushmataha County last November when he brought down a buck for the ages. This buck, scoring 191-4/8 and just accepted into B&C on March 27, 2008, is the new Oklahoma state record typical whitetail. The former record, scoring 185-6/8, was taken by Larry D. Luman in Bryan County in 1997.

Jason's deer has a gigantic typical frame, scoring 210-4/8 net. The buck also had 19 inches of abnormal points, meaning Jason had the choice to enter the buck as either a 191-4/8 typical or a 229-4/8 non-typical. Bryan chose the typical score, which favorably places the buck as a true all-time great in the typical category.

Lance Wasniewski arrowed this giant droptine buck in December of 2007, on his birthday. Dean Birkeland submitted the photo, and noted that Minnesota could have many more field photos of bucks like this if they would restrict the buck harvest. He could be right. Minnesota was a true heavyweight in whitetail entries up until about 1980, at which point entries have trailed off significantly.
