Anyone shooting forked horns as trophies

[Ontario Hunter]

Not opposed to it if it's a big mature deer and would definitely pull the trigger on that one! Never killed a big straight forky, these are as close to a big mature forky I've found.

Looks like that bottom one has been dead for a long time. His eyeballs are gone.

These were both fine bucks and I didn't hesitate. Top one shot last year only has three on one side. The other was shot four years ago within sight of where last year's dropped. Both were very large deer. Difficult shots too. The 3x3 I shot on the run at ~70 yards and flattened him.

Not great wall hangers but good hunts and good eating. Montana public land and neither required two days to fill the tag.

Not a forky but my son did shoot a big 3x3 six years ago.

Forgot I passed this old guy up twice(archery and rifle) he was blind in one eye. Had a 190" buck I was hunting in the same spot.

Another old 2 point from some years ago, guided a friend to him. Teeth worn flat, it was his last year, he was emaciated. Prob 8+ years old.

Big 30" 3 point I shot with my bow

Does this count…….?

I love the face on this buck. Old fighter. Goofy as can be though.

Here's a whitetail from a couple years ago. Not much on score but a mature unique deer.View attachment 617964View attachment 617966

Niiiccceee.

We call these deer culls. Because animals this size, even half these sizes, basically any buck over 2 years old and still not symmetrical is determined, right or wrong, as having bad genetics.
