Another monster from the Ithaca area?

[WNY Bowhunter]

A buddy of mine sent me this pic saying that this buck was killed just south of Ithaca in a town called Danby. All I know is that there is a current year's NY tag affixed to his rack (I blurred the guy's face out). Anyone from the area know anything about the deer? Come on Joe, where you at buddy???!!!

I had the same picture forwarded to my phone claiming that it was shot in Tully, NY (south of Syracuse). It will be interesting to see how this unfolds. It has a NY tag on it so its only a matter of time before the truth comes out of where this buck came from.

Big deer it seems all the monsters are coming out late late,The rut came late and may stay late!!A family member of mine just took a big 12 point of his land and he was drooling for the doe sent he looked to be in full rut!!

that thing is huge

it looks photo shopped tho, take a look at the left side of the rack which is on the right side photo. the drop tine and parts of the rack havea black line around it and the base seems like it has a funky angle? looks shopped just my opinion

Good eye. It almost looks as if it's super imposed over the deer head itself.

Definitely looks photo shopped. Just look at how the rack seems almost 3D from the rest of picture, especially against the guys camo.

Looks like a regular, low rez cell phone pic to me. You get alot of odd things with some of those phone cams. Id like to see some better pics of it though.

Saw a different pic of this buck on another forum. A friend of the hunter posted it. He stated it was a state land buck. Hey, ya never know !

[troutman]

Looks like the same buck.....

[troutman]

Must be they took the time to photoshop 2 pictures to make it more believable....LMAO

[DEADDEER1]

Beayty id say its a true pic dont looked shoped to me lucky dude

[WNY Bowhunter]

_{Where did it say he was taken at?}

[HectorBuckBuster]

I seen a picture over the weekend of a buck taken that also had drop tines. Not sure if it was the same buck or not.

[troutman]

_{"Where did it say he was taken at?} "

Wasn't specific out of respect for his friend he said, only said southerntier so Ithaca area sounds right. He stated that his friend that took the deer has been hunting and scouting his heart out and that it was a deserving buck. Sounds like the case of alot of hard work finally paid off....

I hope this hunt meets everyone's standards so this guy doesn't get slammed all over for shooting a buck of a lifetime. Congrats to the hunter.

four bottom buck... Sweet.

[sampotter]

For you guys that have a good understanding of B+C scoring- what's the call- A) a 7 pt mainframe w/4 droptines or 9 pt mainframe, 2 droptines and 2 mainbeams that droop down? I like option B although I can't say which way will score higher. Either way- helluva buck. That mass is awesome!

[nyantler]

Looks to me like a 7-point main frame with 5 abnormal pts.. 4 of which are drops.. the drooping from drops look like they are acually coming of the bottom of the beam and aren't the main beam... closer inspection might prove different... it will probably have to be panel scored to get a concensus... when the time comes.. its a close call without it right in front of me
