Remember this Utah buck?

Homer · Dec 5, 2016

Milton Z. Hunt....?

First time I've seen this pic of it

Chacoblue777 · Dec 5, 2016

Wow! What a buck and a cool pic! I don't recall having seen that pic before either. Thanks for sharing. That mass!!?

elkassassin · Dec 5, 2016

The Buck was Harvested in TARDville in the 40's!

Going By Bad Memory I Think the Buck was like 45" Wide!

And 40+ total Points!

Is He in the Book Homer?

Does This mean if I Get a Buck about 1/2 this Bucks Size & I'm Using a Burris Eliminator Scope I Won't be Eligible for the Book?

That buck will forever be engraved in my memory. As a kid growing up I looked at that picture found in the First Utah's Biggest Bucks book on page 316 frequently. Some of you guys probably remember this hunter orange hardback book. I think that is the only book I read cover to cover while I was in my youth lol. Definitely one of my all time favorites. Thanks for sharing that blast from the past.

Fantastic buck and a beautiful place for a cabin. Imagine how big it would've been if he'd held it out at arms length! Imagine how big it would've been if he'd given it another year... lol

Castnshoot · Dec 6, 2016

Does anybody know where he is at now?

Or was he thrown out on the pile of antlers behind the barn like so many bigguns were back in those days?

oilcan · Dec 6, 2016

Incredible mass

DeadEyeDick · Dec 6, 2016

Dang! It's a good thing I've never seen a buck like that while elk hunting, cuz I'd probably mistake it for an elk!

eelgrass · Dec 7, 2016

I didn't know Arnold Palmer was a hunter too.

mozey · Dec 7, 2016

Holy crapoli

NVB would be Proud of the Gun!

Holy crap. Notice he's not holding it around the bases. His hands would be a bloody mess!

bugleb · Dec 10, 2016

FYI, the orange covered copy of Utah's Biggest Bucks was the second edition published in 1988. The first edition was brown and published in 1977.

I saw a buck that looked a lot like this one in south central Utah about 20 years ago. Unfortunately, it was 200 yards away on a bow hunt.

Bambistew · Dec 12, 2016

>Does anybody know where he is
>at now?

I think its part of the Cabela's collection. Formerly owned by Don Schaufler. I fondly remember this buck as I delivered him to a guy UT for a calendar shoot? Strapped the mount into the seatbelt and drove 3 hours to meet him in ID Falls. The antlers tore a hole in interior of my pickup when we were putting him in.

As I recall that buck has the most mass of any in the book.

Love the pic's of the big old boys!!! If I could only have a time machine for a hunt back then!

RutCrazed · Sep 23, 2024

Wasn't there some type of controversy about this buck, even way back then? Maybe a town buck or something?? Is it actually in B&C?

Wiszard · Sep 23, 2024

That is a giant...Thanks for posting, Homer.

Is there a story you have about this buck since you brought such an old thread back to life and posted the framed pic?

I don’t have a story, it was just a photo I came across from an old estate sale and I just found it. The photo is old, and I’m not sure who the people in it are but you can tell its the same buck.

Was kinda hoping you had some personal knowledge of it.

This is what the Pine Valley would be again if they’d just cut tags!

I saw more spike/forks on that unit than all the other hunts I've been on combined!

How did that guy survive in the mountains with a button up shirt and levis.

Mallardsx2 · Sep 24, 2024

^^^Tards today would die by the dozens if they had to live like that.

yoteduster · Sep 25, 2024

What a great buck

liecabucks · Sep 26, 2024

What would it be like to pack a 40 er out??

yoteduster · Sep 26, 2024

This buck is owned by cabelas last i heard..he is 43 5/8 inchs wide and a score of 304 5/8...I was wondering why he wasn't listed in the Boone and Crockett book guess it has a broken skull plate..so another great buck that don't get a credit from B&C...While I was going through all my big buck stuff I seen there has been quite a few 40+ in. Bucks killed in the pine valley area

Vanilla · Sep 26, 2024

That buck gets all the credit it needs from anyone that looks at the pictures.

Who cares what the "book" says?

He’s in Kansas City. I saw him last time I was there. He’s a brute.

Dropped him like a 2’ putt!

Now I know what my dream buck looks like.

Gator · Oct 2, 2024

TOO many hunters covering the available land that is owned by landowners, N Parks. Etc.
It's hard for them to get alot of big ones like that now days.
