"It is the largest deer I have ever shot."

Submitted photo Chris Read, of Baldwinsville, shot this nice 10-point buck Nov. 18 in the town of Danby.

He wrote: "I had seen it the day before but did not feel I had a clean shot at it. Fortunately, the next day I saw it again and made a clean shot, he dropped 25 yards after being shot in the heart. It is the largest deer I have ever shot. Here's the numbers:

10 points (an additional two had been broken off)

18 3/4 inch inside spread

22 inch greatest spread

10 inch tip to tip

"My hunting partner Bob Dodge and I had to drag it 9/10ths of a mile to the road. Fortunately we had a snow sled. We guessed the weight at 180 -200 pounds."
