Today, the Texas Big Game Awards scoring committee has decided to accept the dry score of Robert Taylor's Grayson County buck. It means that his deer is number one in the eyes of TBGA and the AJ Downs buck is number two.

Both are ugly in my eyes. don't care for either one. That being said, great that they killed big, mature deer. They should both be proud and not let some little record bother them.

If I send my neighbors a text and ask them to give me feedback on my lawn and plant rye into a giant dong pattern, I'm probably going to get some less than positive feedback. Same goes here.

Are idiots multiplying faster than normal people?

I also don't care for them they just have a bunch of trash. I much prefer a typical rack or at least a typical frame with some trash to these freaks. In the end you have to please yourself.
for every stereotype there's a prototype don't be the prototype

would I shoot one of the buck in question to have a big non-typical on my wall if I saw them? yes I would.
Would he be my favoirte buck on my wall? not by a mile....In fact I have a 140" 8-point that I like the looks of more.
Its just a personal preference. Score doesn't mean everything. My ideal buck is a clean 170" free range 10 point. Not a whole lot of those made either.

Would I shoot it?, yes, would I put it on my wall? probably not. I would probably sell the rack to a collector and finance some hunts for a animals I liked.

I would proudly put him on my wall. I'm all about variety in my hunting trophies.

I wouldn't pass on him, that's for sure. He's got a big ol' body on him. Very impressive. Native free range makes it even better.
Life is too short, as is. Don't chance it. Don't text and drive.
