It was late in the afternoon on Oct. 14, and Randy Baker was sharing an elevated blind with his good friend Jared Mills, who’d traveled there from Iowa. They looked out over the rolling hills of Baker’s 250-acre farm in Southeast Minnesota. For the last 10 years, Baker, a financial advisor from Rochester, has been managing the property specifically for whitetail deer.
“The fun part is preparing the land with food plots and travel corridors, clearing spots and making a place a big-buck haven,” Baker tells Outdoor Life.
He says there were two bucks in particular that lived on the piece that he and Mills had their eye on. They’d also brought a video camera to film the hunt for an episode of Driven Hunter. More
In case you were wondering how a 12-point buck can have a 175-inch rack, here’s a guide estimate a buck’s green gross score.
I’d prefer two points with a 44 inch rack.
Nice buck. I’m in a tree right now. The ohio rut is just starting to kick off.
Wouldn’t get near the deer. They have mad cow disease.
Tim Walz was their hunting guide.
Itz getting so stupid they’ve actually made it illegal for hunters shoot “trans-species”…
I had a gerbil in my ass once … actually more than once.
