Free Agent - WORLD RECORD @ 2 - Battle Ridge Whitetails

records are made to be broken, by hard work and good fortune, usually a combination of both. Congrats Mark

18+" ,scored after dried,1 year age difference its not even close the largest known living whitetail is FREE AGENT.

With success comes criticism. I say screw the critics.

Awhile back I Posted about the comments being made about the scores of this years two big deer,I used the words "shut up" in response to the demeaning of one deer over another. My premise was that if you like a deer say so slagging a deer because you don't like the "look" and want your favorite to score higher try doing it in a positive manner, I am reminded of the Highroller /Goliath ....debate of a few years ago and the petty reasons thrown out in support of one over another. The score is the score...if your #1 great that's a great deer if your #2 congratulations that's an awesome deer.

I just want to say thanks to all of you who sent me the angry ,evil and... vitriol e-mails , I will add them to my list, It is always good to know who your friends are.

Curtis, I hope you weren't talking about any emails I sent you. I don't recall ever sending you and negative emails.

Rodger, it was in the last ten days and I know your memory is better than that ...or are you like me, you can remember sire,dam,grand dam, grand sire,.... birth weight, time, weather of each fawn born but have to spend 3x's on flowers the day after birthday to get out of the dog house.

Congrats Mark on the record, and remember its the same old people with the same old stuff.

Im not sure what the big deal is here...He is the largest buck ever raised behind a fence.I dont think anyone would complain to own that title.The way things are being bred and the awsome bloodlines that are out there that record might not hold up long.Enjoy a great deer while you can!!!!
