I was getting the bush hog ready monday night in preparation for food plots this weekend and right about dusk I saw a big buck about 200 yards away. Couldn't tell if it was my target buck or not but he was definitely a shooter. I haven't had my shooter on camera for about a month. Im going to check the cameras this weekend and I'll post some pics monday. Anyone getting anything on camera?
You must have had a stud of a buck running around. Looks like they could all be related. Double brows, split g2s, and crab claws. Either a stud buck or doe that had the good genes. Does the third one have G2s that are split at the main beam on both sides?
Yep... Those bucks most likely have totally different gene pool they are working from since they are all separated by 20 or more miles. We do have non-typical genetics in the herds though....
Not as many as I would like this year. They got to be there, but like you I am not getting them on camera like usual this year.
ToNight is my Son'so first football game of the year. His junior year in High school. Friday night lights
It wasn't good, they lost bad 43-10. Back to the drawing board. Next Friday is the best team in the league. Not going to good next week also
I got a small buck yesterday morning. I hope I didn't upset anybody on the team here for taking him. I hunt with my boys and my youngest son who is 26 says he as been seeing deer of the tops while we have been hunting elk. There was only two of us who drew deer tags this year. So he really wanted me to hunt of the tops with him. so we start working are way across and he spots a small buck about 200 yards away. he said "Dad do you think you could put the sneak on him." I said "what the heck let me see." I went on the back side of the ridge we were on so I could work down a line of pines and Quakes (aspens) to work my way over to him. I come out of the pines and I see him feeding about 60 yards away but he is in some scrub trees and I couldn't get a clean shot. The wind was in my favor. So I get on all fours and took about 15 minutes and the buck slowly feeding up hill I got with in 20 yards of him. There wasn't time to range him so I had to do it like I use to in the old days eyeball my yardage and took the shot. Double lunged him he went 50 yards and died. My son was so excited to witness his old man doing the spot and stalk and get a deer, he told me "Dad I wish I could have filmed it. it was a picture perfect stalk." to the world it is a small buck to me it is a memory my son and I will never forget. Here are a couple pictures
