Steve, I can tell you that the big 1.5's I posted definetly aren't the "norm" around here, they are on a 185 acre farm that is managed pretty well, and that goes for the several surrounding farms as well. There was a ton of food this year between beans, clover, alfalfa, corn, apples, and a bumper acorn crop on this property and it really helped out this season along with last winter being very mild as far as snow goes and alot of rain throughout the summer. Here is the nicest 1.5 from my honey hole property. I really hope he made it through this season, but with the property being opened up to rifle hunters this year... I just don't have much faith. He shows some great promise if he made it, hopefully within the next week I will put my Reconyx on that property to see what is still around.
I like to save mine to see If I would possibly see the same buck next year and compare If I believe they are the same bucks.
