Usually he's not a supper trophy but a nice deer. So if someone from another state or country asked you what a good representative buck from Alabama is, what you say? How old would he be? How much would he weigh? What would his antlers score? I realize bucks from the black belt, ye high Ole Jackson, and a few other areas would be slightly better, but in general what you say?

Honestly, a 120" 8pt is a dang good deer.

Honestly, a 120" 8pt is a dang good deer. This is dead on. We've hunted our place a ton for the past 10 years and we've only got 2 120" deer. We don't shoot many deer but definitely haven't seen the elusive 140" even on camera. I don't think he exists at our place.
