This deer was killed in Madison, Ms on 12/17/07 by Justin Malouf of Greenwood.  He has 24 scorable pts and comes in at 206 7/8 non-typical. The monster buck was scored as a main frame 6pt with 18 abnormal pts with a 12 2/8 inch inside spread.  His bases at the skull were 9 inches. Justin told the Bragging Post, "I hunted this deer for 22 days and on the day before I killed him, 12/16/07, I finally saw him, but he did not present me with the shot I wanted, so I just watched him disappear into the tall grass thinking that I would never see him again.  Little did I know I was less than 36 hours away from killing the buck of a life time.  The very next afternoon at five o'clock as the woods settled down for nightfall, I hit my grunt call, then my can. As I looked behind me in the lanes that I had cut the prior Sunday, he stepped out at 275 yards and was walking straight at me.  As I thought to myself, 'is he going to get away again' he just kept coming.  All I could think about was the day before when he just disappeared into the grass.  I told myself, 'if he just turns a little I'm going to try him' and as he turned to go in the grass at about 250 yards.  I just squeezed my trigger and he disappeared.  I thought, 'Oh, no! I missed'. So, I climbed down and walked down the lane and there was no sign of him.  When I got to the end of the lane I stopped, got my light out of my bag, turned in disappointment back to the truck, and that's when I found my first blood.  He ran about 150 yards."

This trophy won Justin the Men's firearm, non typical, trophy at the 2008 MS Wildlife Extravaganza with a new B&C score of 195.875.  CONGRATULATIONS, JUSTIN!!!
