    Had the camera out for about a week. Another guy hunts this property but the picture was the day after the guy walked past my stand. I'm guessing he's 3.5 yrs old and maybe 130 inches. What do y'all think? Looking forward to the challenge.[​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    dont tell the other guy you saw this in front of your stand. You may walk out to find someone sitting in it sometime...

    You're right, it is closer to 115". I was too high.

    nice buck! I'm guessing 3 1/2 and low 120's with the thickness of the antlers and height

    Nice buck. He would prob score out right in the mid 120's for sure. Good Luck with him.

    I've never met the other guy and I'm pretty good at not giving away spots. Thanks for the scores, I am just starting to try to figure it out. Age is more important to me anyways.

    If you don't get him this season try to figure out where/when he's passing thru so next fall you can drop him. Good luck!

    So I took our five month old over to see the land owner( an older lady) and drop off a fruit basket and Christmas card. Had a great talk with her and sealed permission for putting up stands and hunting next year. Found out she does not own 20 acres like I thought, she owns closer to 75 acres ... Boom!... I can now hunt both big fields and drive to the back side of the property. I'm pumped! Gonna be putting up pictures of the property soon for some advice.
