After what felt like an eternity, he finally started walking towards David, grunting with every step. As he breathed slowly to keep calm, the buck walked on a trail 20-yards behind him and he was able to get a shot and land this beautiful Minnesota buck.

About 8:00 Wade looked up the fence line and could see something else moving in the thicket paralleling a doe. This is when he realized how big the buck was. He tried to calm himself from shaking uncontrollably. At this time the buck was face on at 40-yards, but he had no shot. The buck started to move and paralleled his stand. There was a small bush that he had ranged at 25-yards. He knew when the buck went behind the bush he needed to draw his bow. The buck stepped out and he settled in his top pin and the buck knew it was in trouble.

“Brutus� Dwayne watched the buck grow since it first appeared in 2015 as a mid 150s buck. In 2016, the buck exploded in size. On top of the larger antlers, the buck grew matching drop tines. One of the most striking features about the buck is the overall mass. Even the tall brow tines are heavy. Add the extremely long tine length and it all adds up to an eye-popping 194-inches of antler.

Kyle Hass Buck On a cold, late-season hunt, Kyle Hass found a North Dakota monster chasing does in a slough. After a few days of trying to get close to the buck, and hearing many gunshots in the area, Kyle and his friends thought the worst – someone else had shot the buck. But, after checking one last area, the buck busted out of thick cattails giving Kyle a 80 yard running shot. Kyle didn’t miss and when they walked up on him, he was bigger than they even imagined.

“One morning I was going to town for lunch and looked out in one of our fields and this buck was out there with a doe. I pulled up to the gate, jumped out, snuck across the creek and shot him at 150 yards. I had never seen this buck before. It was a good lunch”.

New For 2019 The Whitetail deer is the most popular big game animal in the United States. We have put together twelve of the great ones and re-created and brought them back to life in the 2019 King’s Calendar. Not only have we assembled an incredible lineup of trophy bucks, but have also provided a layout and design that is both functional and appealing hanging on the wall. Included are some of the biggest and most impressive whitetail deer from as early as last hunting season to some of the great legendary bucks from seasons past that you will enjoy each month throughout the entire year.
Game/Fish Activity Forecast When time is limited, or you just want to increase your odds as best as possible to find and see more game and fish, we have included our Activity Forecast. This gives you the days for highest activity for the month, it is scientifically proven that both game and fish are affected by moon patterns. Look for the moon and star icons included on each month for peak activity days.
