    Not a Small buck stalking a doe

    Didn't get the bucks on video from the stand, so I stopped and videoed this one stalking a doe on the way home. Zoomed out and shakey. But you'll get the idea, love this time of year.

    Not in my book, I wanted to put small IL buck, but figured it would be a given he wasn't so small. Wish I had better light. Youtube finally processed the one on there. It's a little better quality.

    Definitely, not where I can hunt and too far from my area to see him on stand. He's a Jacksonville deer though, not far from the carnation plant, or whatever it is now. Nestle'?

    That buck is easily 140 inches if not 150...which is at the very least a respectable buck in ANY state.

    Yeah, the small thing was purposely done, being Illinois it seems everyone expects 160-180 when you say big buck :). I'd shoot him this year and without a doubt would have last year as well.

    Ok, I changed the thread title so it wouldn't be misleading.

    Well thought I did, won't let me change the main thread header though. If a moderator would like to retitle the thread please do so.
