Yep on the skid marks,think it also took the end off the g-4,that side was under water by a concrete culvert under the hwy. The chewed tips on the other side were the only thing outta the water!Think they got chewed while the ice was on,cause he was surrounded by water.  Rough grossed 165+"
Had to damage someones vehicle.......
Stay sharp, Kenny.

Kenny, Remember this buck.
 
He was found by the guy shown dead in a Hwy ditch. He missed the rack by inches with the brush hog. What a waste on both these beautiful bucks.

Waste? I dunno about that. It is what it is. They got hit and died. That was their destiny.

My brother found a 215" non-typical while fishing in a pond one spring right after the ice came off. Just the rack and about 6 inches of backbone,I'll have to see if I can find pictures.

Found a decent eight point hit in San Antonio.  Third deer hit in the same spot.  Middle of a neighborhood with a little wooded drainage area for high water and rain.  No pics he was gone when I went back 30 minutes later.

wow, too bad you couldnt have seen him in the wild and given him a true champion's end.
