Biggest deer we've seen

Last night my buddy and i were driving around our hunting area and we saw the biggest deer we have both ever seen. He was about 30" wide with 8 points on one side and 7 on the other that we could see. Apparently they found the sheds off this deer last year and they scored 218 non typ w/; 16 points. i don't know whether that was w/ a spread or not but i don't care he was huge. He looks like a real old deer and might be on the downside since we only saw 15 pts instead of 16 but not to far down since im sure he is still over 200 pts. My buddy tried getting some pictures too but we'll see if they turn out since it wasn't a good camera. I just hope that during bow season he comes our way since we hunt the land across the road from him but we can't get on the land he is on. Well wish us luck this season that he chases a pretty little doe all the way to us.
 
Talltines-
I saw a big velvet racked buck off I-80 near Bettendorf the other day. Sounds like a different deer.
 
My hunting area isn't by bettendorf though but there is a big deer off I-80 by bettendorf that i know of it could be the same one. He was a 160 class 10 last year so it could be the same deer.
 
TallTines-
See you live in Bettendorf. I have a huntin buddy who lives in Bettendorf. He has some good video of a nice buck, 190 class non typical from the Blue Grass area.
How is the huntin in Ames? I see you are a student there. A few years ago, I found a nice shed over to Ledges State Park.
Happy Huntin and I hope you get a crack at the big boy.
