The 11-point buck reportedly scores 205 inches, making it truly a word-class whitetail. According to Trophy Bucks of Iowa, the trail camera photos were from the 2016 season. The buck went missing during that season, leaving some to believe it's been dead for over a year.

Thankfully, Knott found the antlers before critters destroyed them.
