Word travels fast when a truly giant whitetail buck is displayed at a deer expo and it’s one of the biggest ever killed in the Southeast, not to mention the state in which it was taken.
A truly remarkable buck was put into the Big Buck Classic, an annual event in Arkansas celebrating deer season and showcasing new gear along with hunters’ bucks for scoring. Arkansas turns out some great deer each year but this monster whitetail takes the cake and the punch!
Jacob Ayecock of Tillar, Ark., is the hunter, and this gorgeous buck reportedly has been scored at 212 inches B&C with a net of 195 inches. With incredible width, length, mass and droptines, this Natural State gagger is truly a great deer anywhere but especially from Arkansas and the Southeast.
Here are some more photos making the rounds on social media:
