That 11 pointer sure is cool

Legend has it that in the mid 50s to 60s a man had high fence deer and they got out. Bred with the wild ones and now ohio has some of the biggest non typical deer in the wild.
He shows one that was shot in 1948. Before the timeline you mention
@@kevingeezy5176doesn’t mean it ain’t true. Ohio has some crazy deer
Incredible! Thanks to Mark and the team for all that do on the educational side of things.
Great episode! I'm looking forward to part 2. The "11 point" great story.
My uncle has a buck in Ohio that he shot out of his farm field in 1981 in Knox County. He never had it officially scored, but his buddy had it scored at 198 typical. It is a 7x7 good mass with some long beams. Over 30”.
Hunted Southern Ohio for the first time 21 season. Heading back in November and I can't wait. I have completely become obsessed with the big hill country. I'm from Georgia and have hunted public land throughout Georgia for 20 plus years. The feeling is nothing compared to Ohio. I sit at home and feel like a 170" buck could walk out at any minute. I sit in ohio and feel a 200" plus could walk out at any minute. Georgia has a 2 buck, 10 doe tag system, and a very long rifle season. I really like how Ohio is one buck state
Muskingum county is noted for it's big bucks, but really anywhere in the hills one could escape hunting pressure for a long time. The old bucks have safe zones and they escape to them at the first sign of pressure. If you can locate their hiding spots then you stand a better chance at getting a shot off. Any "trophy" buck I ever hunted is Wiley and very cautious even in the rut. One way to beat them is hunt in a downpour during the rut. They generally put their nose to the ground and are less aware of other smells. The rain also masks outlying sounds. Just saying, but not a lot of people are willing to get sopping wet for a deer.
@@hillbilly4christ638iirc licking county has had the most bucks submitted to the big buck club
Ohio is crazy place but the bucks also have crazy racks
Can’t wait for part 2!
My son goes hunting all the time and every year he gets a nice one . We live in southern Ohio and it’s big business here .
Big non-typicals are cool and all but that mega main frame 8 point takes the cake in my book
Thing is a monster
Some of these bucks give me the chills just looking at them on the wall let alone seeing one in the woods
This was great. So impressive.
I love to see Ohio bucks ! Great stuff bbd .
Been wanting to go there for years!
Great video thanks for sharing sir
So many great ones
Wow I didnt know this place existed!, great video!. I was an advid bow hunter all my life here in Ohio and never once ever got any of my big bucks scored or recorded!. I retired from hunting 5 years ago and I only hunt Coyotes these days!, I never got that Big non typical rack but if I were to see one I would hunt again!.
I found 2..8 pointers that locked up and drowned in a creek in Jackson County, Ohio. I cldnt afford to mount them locked up, but still have the racks and pics of how I found them in the creek. I was part of a Federal Funded creek clearing clean up and the last day of it was when I notice them while looking over a bridge off of St. Route 35. Called the game warden and was able to get tags for both bucks...great story to tell the grand kids
Great collection Mark good story
One great thing about Ohio pick a county any county and they are there.
The end was very proper.
Beautiful. Thanks for sharing. New sub.
What a collection! Not sure if the Ohio mystery buck is in there but it is for sure one of my top 10 deer of all time. This is such an amazing collection it is hard to even believe my eyeballs. All coming from Ohio makes me want to take a trip there to hunt some day.
Just wait until you see part 2…
How about that Bob Willis buck ? Great guy and story !
Great video.
My great grandfather held the record for biggest whitetail in New York State from like 1970s untill early 2000s. Massive 18 pointer I forget all the measurements. Me and my grandfather actually found a dead head last year that is so perfect it’s only a 9 but it’s so perfect and super wide and massive gerth on the antlers.
yeah I bet
@@trippyredpups997 you think I would write this all out if I were lying? Nothing to brag about i didn’t shoot it I just thought it was an interesting fact
@@ylemscalamity so you'd have pics? There's a way to prove your claim?
@@ylemscalamity I have the Boone and Crockett record book. The typical and non typical New York State records have been held since 1939.
@@BarryMcCockinner6969 yeah idk all I do know is his last was seamon and he was my great great grandfather I’ve seen pics of the deer and him and the article showing he had broke the record what yeah I have no clue
My brother has a 190" he found in erie county pa while kayaking. 25pt non-typical. Scored by brian knightlinger.
Whenever I see a video like this I have to watch and see if the “Hole in the Horn” buck gets mentioned. My grandfather drilled the hole in the horn when he was managing the bar at the Kent Canadian Club.
Deer have antlers, not horns. How does one drill a hole in a horn on a deer, when deer don't have horns? If representing facts, tell the truth. Don't repeat lies as truth. A cow, or sheep or goat has horns ..not deer. Wow, want some ocean front property in Arizona, cheap. Get into the rush before it's all gone
@@jamesconner8374 I didn’t name the deer. Why don’t you go complain to the guy that did?
I shot a deer with a really tight, small 8 pt basket. When I got up to it, it appeared bigger, heavier and taller than the average south Texas deer. I rolled it over after seeing under its tail (I walked up from rear and shot in heavy brush thinking it was a doe. ) To my shock not only did she have antlers, she had festivals as well as the vulva I saw when her tail was up and I shot her..as a doe. So I had to pack her in on horse and get with Parks)wildlife to see what tag to use. Since Tx tags say "antlered" or antler less, I had to buck tag her. And they said she was considerably bigger than average deer of either gender by some 50+ lbs or more. Interesting enough was she had all the internal female organs to have a fawn and her udder looked as though she'd fawned several times. The teeth put he at 9 years old. She outlived all the predators and hogs in a very desert like poor environment and was tick free and healthy. Kinda cool but sad I ended her interesting life .I saw another hermaphrodite but it was more male than female
As many of beautiful big monster bucks there, I have to agree with you on the Drake's 11 point, what an amazing story and the smile with him and his deer! Is there any bucks on the wall from Knox and Richland county?
The I I point is my favorite deer now! 🦌
The buck that Jay shot on State Park ground is that the biggest public ground buck ever shot
Down in Ohio swag like Ohio down in Ohio swag like Ohio
Good job Drake.
I think the BTR scoring system is the best way of scoring. If the deer grew it should be scored the true way. I’ve seen deer that score over 200 dropped to under 200 with boone system. If the seer grew it. Show respect for the animal and give it what it deserves
Nets are for fishing
I thought all would have been high fenced but wow
Wish u was specific on counties. Areas.. Logan county and auglaize county got huge bucks runnin around everywhere.
Anytime you can get a kid to go hunting you should should try to help them get started. Improved both your lives. Nice collection sir.
Let's gooooo
Hey from Southern Ohio we live in Lawrence county and it seems like every year they just keep getting bigger for the last 7 years me and my stepson have gotten a chance to take six over 140 just got to leave them alone for a while they all get big
This just makes my biggest buck look trivial
dont you guys have a second deer season starting soon?
Hello great video, are the deer farms in ohio required to tattoo or tag their deer so if a hunter shot it they would know if it had escaped , this would seem logical
Deer farm or game land ?
How about the cliff row buck killed in Lawrence County
U need a replica of the Amish buck. 295 in
I’m coming to Pike county. No small bucks….! 4yr olds and up. The mentality is opposite in the Buckeye state than the Vampire sorry Empire State. See a buck kill a buck then complain about no big bucks. Oh yes then the I shot a 4pt for camp meat. Which translates to I saw 15 doe first then shot the little guy. I shot my biggest buck to date in Pike county 2014. But my first hunt in Ohio was up in Belmont county and I saw a Mega Giant!!! He was living on over 300ac of NO hunting. Sadly I can’t come back until gun season. Great job!! Thanks for sharing.
Dandy 11 point
All farm raised and feed!!
Are these deer free range deer or just raised for antlers
i love how the taxidermist isnt recognized thats where the real work goes in
I don't like how people travel to places that say they have big buck just hunt where you are and if you get what would say small but its big for your place be happy with it
The horns were so odd I don’t see one u have that was like the one I saw yesterday Iam telling ya he was a monster almost like a elk size no bs at all he’s was huge huge huge and I see dear every day in the woods never seen this one he’s was like tank size brother Iam gonna go back today see if I can find him again get video this time Iam kinda scared to get close to him because he’s so massive
Are these buck mount replica’s.
Nice video. Drake is profe horns shouldn't be the important part.
I have a set of sheds that was scored by an official scorer from what was formerly Rack Magazine that netted a score of 224 inches. The set do not make any kind of record book because they are sheds but I was genuinely curious as to what they would score. The set has 25 .5 inch main beams almost 8 inch bases, triple brow tines both sides and a total of 21 points. The deer broke off two brow guards and a drop tine. I can't imagine what this deer looked like wearing that crown. They were found in South Eastern Ohio in 92 by my brother in a picked cornfield. He never hunted so he had no interest in keeping them and he gave them to me. He said they were laying only about 3 feet from each other. Can't hope for better than that I guess. My last deer in Ohio was a 170 in typical. Ohio is the land of giants.
Do you wana sell those sheds by chance?
What percent of these deer were shot on public or state game land.
Have you heard about the 8 year old that put down a big monster buck about 2 weeks ago down in greene county
If you find out more, please let us know.
Not bad...😁
Lot of people in Ohio don’t share deer they get I know buddy with multiple deer over 200 inches that doesn’t share them haha
Wisconsin farmers do that a lot
It’s because all these legit big deer killers know they will be accused of poaching. It’s a guarantee that jealousy will happen. It’s not worth the hassle
Kassinger buck?
What about the William Kontras buck? Ohio State record typical from mid 80s. 201 1/8 net typical
👀👀 part 2 coming soon!!
I’m pretty sure my uncle might have had the buck on camera shot by that woman in 2017.
rest is peace drake..
Weird how as soon as you cross into WV the deer are half the size
Must be how WV manages the population
Not a deer hunter...the Haney Buck looks the coolest
Yo exodus guyz
down in ohio swag bucks like ohio
How do y’all get peoples deer?Who is willing to give away that big of bucks
My uncle has a possible world record at his barn he’s going to try to get it checked his dog found the skull
How come none of these are like home world records thank you see all these world records like the one just in Indiana that dude shot with a crossbow these deer all gold bigger than them I mean yes they're not typical typical but still they're bigger
There’s typical world record and then there’s non-typical world record 2 different categories, these In video are mostly all non-typical
How many of the deer were shot in a high fence them don't count
Coulda swore the Bob Haney buck was shot with a bow not shotgun?
lol I would black out if I seen any of these
I do not beleive half of those deer were wild deer, maybe deer farms
Sounds like you've never hunted Ohio.
DOWN IN OHIO STRAIGHT FROM OHIO
BTR scores all the way. Best scoring system if it grew it count it. To many politics in Boone and Crockett.
Only in Ohio
Was Drakes family a Christian family? I heard they were. So so sorry for the loss.
Brother I just saw a deer yesterday that was a 11 pointer in Akron in the metro parks I took pictures too wish I could post just pics I’d love to show ya tha fucker was huge huge huge never in my life seen a dear that big Iam talking he has to be a easy 5/600 pounds wish I followed him
What going on in Ohio
Where is that
ohio da
The Paul lenmen buck is my great great grandpa buck we have the replica in are house
Jesus, is that what people are doing? Growing big bucks and shooting them on fenced in property and then acting like they shot them on some natural hunt? Please somebody set me straight
Apparently that's the way ppl are doing it these days. Paying a bunch of money to go have their pick on the deer they want to shoot bcuz the place is loaded with them in a area that is fenced in. It's a shame bcuz the deer deserve better! Ppl souks have to spend the time in the woods instead of going out in the dark and when the sun comes up having to decide on which buck to shoot bcuz there are so many.
They don't kill the deer in the fences lol those are for people to come and see. The deer on the walls were all killed in the wild.
@@frontlinefootage5193 haha, phew! I'm like well no damn wonder their deer are huge, they're hunting at a petting zoo 😄
@@jodypatterson4701 well that's just pathetic in my eyes
@@frontlinefootage5193are you actually saying these arent high fence deer?
Ofc it’s Ohio😂😂
The sad part is there’s always big buck everywhere it’s a matter of if they make it long enough now they don’t all have the genetics to be monsters don’t get me wrong but every state has that monster genetic it’s a matter of if they live long enough to hit there stride at least in my opinion which is by no means a professional opinion
Cant even have normal deer in Ohio💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
We had 15 guys doing a deer drive on this high swamp. I shot at this monster buck 4 times, drew blood. After first shot he lowered his head and proceeded to plow his way out of danger. A stander on the highway said it was the biggest monster ever. My grandpa picked up the trail, barking on it. All of us spread out to cut off the monster buck. Nobody ever saw him before or after that day. Exciting hunt in a big swamp in the middle of BFE. If a hunter sees 5 deer and heard 2 it's a good season. The nearest farm land is 7 miles away. Real hunting, just real.
i know jay he is my my dads friends bother
he was on a boat when he killed it
onlly in ohio 💀
I’ll never understand being proud of a deer you messed up so bad that it takes 3 days to find and is totally wasted it’s not about just killing them
Shyt happens man If you bow hunt long enough things can go errant. Several years back I had a pretty good buck @ like 15 yards, stopped him with a low mouth grunt @ full draw, held it tight just behind the shoulder and let it fly and somehow the arrow ended up hitting like 3 feet to the right in the hindquarter. My only conclusion was I must of clipped a small branch that I didn't see through my peep sight. Anyway gl out the tag a big 1
My dad has a beautiful symmetrical 8x8 that scored 194. Gotta love old deer harvests!
only in ohio
Only in ohio
Most normal deer in Ohio
If you dont get the meat . Its a wasted kill that is just a waste. It dont count.
Most normal deer in ohio
Hi, you represent this collection as big bucks..these bucks appear to be average weight, height, mass bucks. NONE look bigger than average bodies. If you said "big antlered" I'd believe you but not big bucks. You take a pickup and put smaller tires on it, or bigger..the truck is the same weight, width and horsepower..just the accessories are different sized, like antlers. A man can put a roll of pennies, quarters or half dollars in his front pocket..at the end of the day when he gets in bed..he is still the same body size , everywhere. So how are these deer represented as bigger than normal? How much taller, wider, heavier are they than average? If representing nature, just tell the truth..I'm not buying into that roll of pennies in your pocket
Lot of these are replica antler sets put on mounts. The owners keep the real mounts
those frames are atrocious
pretty wild, but arent all these non-typical? is there a hall of fame for typical? this may be a dumb question, but do all these deer have genetic issues?
Ohio isn’t real
imagine killing gods creatures and thinking your cool
It is pretty cool though.
It's totally cool. Imagine reading God's book and understanding The good Lord gave these animals to us.
@@UncleDonDon He sure did. Be thankful.
