    Pretty ticked at myself, I missed at nice 8 at 24 yds this weekend - still looking for my first deer in my 3rd bowhunting season... checked the cameras though and found this guy. I have never seen him before but judging the activity that has picked up greatly in the past week - I think he will come by again. Hopefully I don't choke on him.

    Age and Score? He looks to be 4 1/2 maybe 5 1/2 to me - I have no idea on the score. Would be helluva first deer. lol

    He's definitely nice. You will get a lot of cruiser bucks at this time of year as they search for hot does.

    Have no idea of the score but he's a brute! Split G's and G3's on his right side!

    4+, easy 155 assuming his left side matches the right (hard to tell for sure)
