    This is one of the bucks I'm after this season on public hunting land. I call him Cinco because I had 5 runins with him last year. He always came by in shooting range but was always either running to fast for a shot after a doe or to much brush in the way for a clear shot. I even found one of his sheds in march even though the critters did some chewing damage to it. He doesn't seem to have grown in rack size by a lot this year. These photos are of him from last season. cinco new nov 23.JPG cinco s 2023 crop 1.jpg cinco ss 2023 crop 2.jpg Cinco r nov  23 moonlight crop.jpg cinco shed 2023 crop.jpg

    Nice! That’s a sizable jump. How old do you think he is?

    He maybe a 4 year old, hard to tell for sure. I had no knowledge of him before last year.

    A few pics from the last couple of days - The short tined 10 is new to my cameras this year.....His head gear won't score much but he's built like a tank

    I had two sits so far and ended up coming down with pneumonia and wasn’t able to get out. Pics slowed down on cameras also. There’s still plenty of season left but I wanted to get one opening week.

    It feels like the annual shift just happened. Went from periodic buck on cam to about 10 diff bucks yesterday. I’m pretty sure the one I passed 4 times last year is back. Can’t quite get an age on him, but I don’t think I’ll be passing on him this year. Oct can’t come quick enough!

    Anyone on the team get hit with Hurricane Helene this weekend. I had biz calls with 2 people today—both affected and one had to evacuate. My prayers are with those impacted.
