The ATK Mule Deer - True Trophy Mule Deer!

This mule deer, often called the ATK buck for where he spent most of his life (Alliant Tech (ATK) on the west side of the Salt Lake City valley gave me a rare opportunity to capture a few minutes of video. This awesome buck was watched for years by many hunters but I do not believe the buck was ever hunted as he spent his life on private property where hunting is not allowed. He was recently killed (Nov. 11, 2006) by a car as he left the property and crossed a busy highway. He was rough scored by a guy from Sportmen's Warehouse at a screaming scored of 225! He was recovered by the Utah DWR and his antlers as currently in the evidence room of the DWR. Let's hope he got a few does during the rut and spread a few of his great genes!
