A 25 inch 192 inch 5 by 6 with G2's of 19 2/8 and 20 4/8 from 1999.
A 30 inch 188 inch archery 4 by 4 from 2005

Some field photos and some wall photos.

First 2 are muzzleloader bucks in past several years. Last one is a San Juan rifle buck 25 years ago. He is the one on far left of last photo, other two is general rifle of my son when he was 17ish and a large 3x3 from Colorado that I love - does not score like a 4x4, but take him over many 4x4's.

Dang! Nice bucks, guys! I'd post my three biggest, but they would be laughable compared to the bucks you guys hammered.

I have to live vicariously through my 18 year old daughter. She is the Tagmaster. I have only had 2 deer tags in the last 20 years.
@ 13yo, little 3x4 on day 9, her 1st
20151130_110338.jpg

@ 14yo, 2nd morning, 24 hours & 15 minutes into the hunt. Couldn't get her to hold off, but bigger than I originally thought. 171"
20161119_084810.jpg

@ 17yo, 90 minutes into opening day. 196", biggest deer in the family

Not too embarrassed to show mine. Only a 156", but a decent slumpbuster with a 12 year tag dryspell. 2012

166" 2 years later, 2014, and the last tag I have had. 2nd biggest bodied buck I have ever seen.

And my biggest buck, unfortunately, fits inside my daughters 32" buck. 176" about 28 years ago, way before digital cameras or cell phones

Well crap, I'm not about to put my Southern New Mexico desert muleys on this page. Good Lord y'all killed some giants...
 
This is my largest bodied mule deer.

Top 1,2, & 3 for me. Not a lot of these roaming around any more during the general season deer hunt here in Utah.
I know your making a joke here but on an Arizona Rifle Mule deer hunt in 6A I met some people from back east that said they shot the biggest deer they'd ever seen. It wasn't easy to tell them they shot a raghorn bull elk and needed to call AZGF
