Matthew Tyler was watching a green field in Madison County, Mississippi, as dusk settled over the area on Nov. 30, 2003. Suddenly, this super 10-pointer stepped into the field. Matthew quickly brought up his .270, centered the cross hairs on the deer's chest and squeezed off the 130-yard shot. The buck ran just 20 yards before he fell and the celebration began. According to Matthew's dad, Van, the giant has a gross score of 180 1/8.
