    Driving through a neighborhood not far from my house I came across this guy tonight. Had 4 bucks total in the field but he was the only good one. I have been trying to get access to property near here for years with no luck. Guess since I can't shoot him I will have to go all out looking for these sheds next spring!

    Looking good. Kinda surprised he was out mid-day and so close to a high traffic area.

    It was actually later then it looked in the video. It was about 7:30 at night so less then an hour before sunset but surprised he was where I found him. I drive that area all the time looking for deer and that field is usually full of doe's and vary rarely ever see a buck.

    That young guy looks like he's going to be a total freak when he gets some age on him.

    Looks like he is still fairly young. If nobody gets on him he will be a absolute giant next year!

    Thats a nice buck Jim!!! You asked for permission and they said no or just can't find or contact land owner? Would be a score to gain access there!

    But Ferg, that buck scores higher than 50... Now there's two reasons why you can't shoot it!

    It is in an unincorporated part of town so he is huntable by some. I have asked a few of the land owners on that street with no luck and a few others I haven't been able to get in contact with. One property just went up for sale but well outside my budget. I will keep trying though! And Tom and Joe kiss my ***! The property I filmed him is actually county land and DNR has a history of sharp shooting them on that land so I am really hoping he survives! That property is right up against a bunch of private land.
