What People Are Saying About The James Jordan Buck

Bill Winke photoFor most of my early years as a deer hunter, the Jordan Buck served as the benchmark against which all others were compared. It inspired awe and provided fuel for the dream that one day something like that might walk past my stand! This deer remains a huge part of the tradition of hunting in North America and is still one of the most recognizable and inspiring bucks ever shot. I am excited that you [Danbury and Burnett County] are continuing to honor this great iconic deer.

Mr. WhitetailAmerica's deer, the whitetail, is one of our most popular game animals, certainly mine! I've been fortunate to hunt whitetails deer across our great North American continent. Without a doubt the Jordan buck is one of the finest and best whitetails ever taken. My Texas western hat it off to Mr. Jordan and his fabulous buck! What a great hunting heritage he established now a hundred years ago! Long may it and our hunting heritage reign!
