    Have had many pics of this guy in the past two weeks. I obtained permission to hunt this block of woods last year. Went in a couple weeks ago and saw some good sign! Was wondering what you guys think he will score? I was thinking 110 ish? 115 maybe, I am not all about what he scores, he is a trophy to me all day long!

    I sat 6 hours today hoping to see him, he finally showed up in the daytime yesterday at 11 am!!

    I think your lookin gat a bit more than 110-115 I am not great at scoring deer from pictures but I would say closer to the mid to high 120s at least from my experience.

    Yep you are low balling him. He looks mature, good beams and good tine length for a 4x4. I would say 130 - 135. Shoot him and let us know !!

    I appreciate it guys! I actually score deer in NC at the dixie deer classic so I should know the score of him a little better. I think he is a mature for sure! I would love to mount him!

    @Nickstuff, I agree! I love my covert cameras! I know a lot of guys use stealth cams, they seem to be great too. I love my coverts! Thanks for the comment on the deer! I hope I get a shot at him, he may be the biggest and most mature deer I have had on camera ever!

    That's a good deer. He's probably in the low 130's.

    Is this an NC deer? What part are you hunting?

    Also, have to agree with others, assuming he's an 8 pointer, he's looking like a mid 120 easy. I zoomed on him tho, it almost looks like a 7 pointer, then I would have to agree with you that maybe 115.

    I hunt Chatham county and wake county, garner specifically! And I appreciate the comments guys. Sitting here now hoping he shows up! He is an 8 for sure, his brow tines aren't all that long!
