He's got 21 scoreable points, so I guess it has to be "BlackJack".

He's for sale....north central Ohio.

He's "for sale"??

What do they do...just release him in a fenced field and..... BOOM?

Don't know about B&C, but Pope and Young would deny it any record
status. Can't imagine such a thing..lol

Yeah, that's basically it. Like raising beef or chicken for meat, he was raised for antlers.

The difference between his life and a wild deer, is that for 5 years he ha had a very nice life, food, does, low stress. Wild bucks in Ohio last 1.5 yrs on average, all the stresses of vehicle collisions, dogs, coyotes and a 4 month hunting season.

There is a market for preserve deer, I'm happy to provide a service. The "field" he will be released into is 100 ac min. in Ohio, brushy and wooded normally.

The people that pay for these hunts, are generally busy professionals with no time to hunt, let alone the kind of time to find and kill a buck of this size.

These deer are not allowed into the record books, and they shouldn't be.

My buyer has pro football players as clients, that think nothing of spending 30 - 40k on a couple big deer.

It's not for everyone, but all things considered, it's not so bad.

Lol that's crazy, no time to hunt your kill! I'm a busy professional be it a relatively poor one but even if I were wealthy I could never bring myself to pay for a staged hunt haha. You should cut out the middle man get a golf cart and drive them around your property for 20k Gold Maven;) Beautiful animal... thx for posting, whitetail coolest deer imo.
