He is a tremendous deer, but I warn you, he is not as big as he looks!
He is a main frame 4×4 with forks on his G2’s making him have 5 points each side. I again talked to Paul last night and this morning about Splitter. We both believe he still grosses in the mid maybe low 140’s. Splitters brows and main beams are a lil’ weak comparatively. Again a tremendous deer but don’t let him fool ya.
The best part is we have a TON of history with this deer. Passing on him on numerous opportunities as 3.5 year old was a tough deal, but now look at him as a 4.5 year old. I just hope he stays healthy and packs on the inches this Summer. Paul and I (mainly Paul since it is his land) have had some real bad luck of following a particular deer only to have a neighbor shoot it. It happened with the 2 previous giants we tracked after we both had close encounters with them both. I just hope this next Fall that Paul shoots this deer. I know it doesn’t matter to Paul who shoots Splitter, as long as it is someone that hunting his property. But if it were up to me, I would want Paul to harvest this deer.
Believe me, no one deserves it more.
