Deer was living in closed section beside seed orchard/Krul lake. I know few Forestry employees who have seen him in the seed orchard. Few years ago 8pt with double drop tines was found dead on entry road to Krul lake. They get big in sections where they can reach 5-6 years old.
Heck of a Fl deer and amazing public land buck! I have a 118 2/8 Fl buck on my wall and he is a lot bigger. From what I can tell I will guess around 133-135 gross. Atta boy Jake!
Jacob Gibson killed the 13 point ahead of dogs . The buck had slipped out of the tree farm where they hold wounded warrior hunts ...word around the water cooler is there are 3 more in the closed tree farm area that put that one to shame. The deer was a young deer just had a really good set of horns.
I hunt with Jacob and the comment about the ole Q-beam is really just ignorant unless you know for fact. Jacob killed that deer in the daylight in an open area of the dog hunt section. Fine buck for sure and he was only about 13-14 inches wide. I know because my 16 inch 6 point was in the freezer with his and was wider by a couple inches.
