These photos have just come in--two giant bucks reportedly from Nebraska. Can't hardly believe the size of the buck's rack in the back of that pickup truck! It looks more like a moose. Details as they come in.

We're in the process of tracking down Mystery Buck No. 2 as well. Killer mass and brow tines.
