Latest pics from my trail cam. Seeing these bucks grow this year has been pretty cool! Hoping i get a chance at that monster!

Very nice deer! Good luck! Hope to see you in a pic holding that beast!

Great looking buck. Look forward to see some pic out of velvet.

Yeah he ought to look pretty good out of velvet. He’d look even better hanging on my wall!

I am trying to get a number on him but kinda hard he looks real impressive turned a tad to the side. I figure 160? Maybe gross 170. Sure hope you get him. He is a good deer and I would kill him even if he was only 130.

Do you got any idea on age?

No clue on the age. Just moved onto this property this spring so this is the first season i have seen him.

Great looking deer I have yet to shoot a 160 + deer here at home have been close through the years but no shot
J

I'd put him in the low 180 range.
Great buck!!.

Hoping you whack im!

Give him another year and he’ll be mature!!!





















Just kidding I had to say that as no one else has yet

With that pot belly, he is in his prime. He probably won't improve with another year behind him.

Some good ones!

Nice deer! He may look 180 in velvet but my guess is he'll look 170 hard horned and will shrink to 160s dead. I do think he's on the younger side as a mature buck which means he may get bigger if he gives you the slip this year. I personally sure wouldn't pass on him. Me and my boy got glass on a couple nice deer this weekend, a really nice typical 12 that I think is 170+ and a super wide 10 I seen last year. The ten is pushing 24" wide but short tines maybe 6 to 8" tines but this years he's got a clubby looking drop tine on the left side. Hoping we get alot of the corn harvested in the next 2 or 3 weeks and I can get them on some cams.

^ I agree with your measuring but still great bucks.

Nice deer, looks to be about 3 1/2 years old to me.

After you kill him keep his lower jaw bone and you will know for sure...

The new deal now is the two bottom middle front teeth. They say its 90% accurate where tooth wear is only like 70%. You pull the 2 teeth send them to a lab they cut them and count the rings. They say every spring and fall they get a growth ring. It's pretty neat deal look it up.

The biggest deer will gross in the 180 class. But with all the kickers and stickers he will net mid 160's typical. IF you kill him have him scored non-typical also . I would guess him at 5 1/2 MAAAAYbe 6 1/2. If he doesn't get injured and has the right nutrients he will grow some next year but that is no guarantee...................
As for the other deer 3 1/2 at most . Let him walk


But with that said . The big deer is a 12 pt plus. When you try to score 12 pt it gets tricky that extra 2 points fool some people into guessing lower than the deer will score............

Got my target buck on camera

Very nice! And daylight pics even. I have only had a couple daylight pics of my bucks above. They usually hit the corn just after dark and then again just before the sun comes up.
