Studs!

So what are we guesstimating on the age of your big boy this year if he is still around??

I had him at 4.5 in 2011, puts him at 9.5 this year, he could have easily been 5.5 in 2011 though, that was my first year of cameras.

I know all of the hunters around me and since 2012 only 2 of my hit listers have been killed, neither of them were in the top 3-4 at any time either, these suckers die of old age around here...

Ol man was 10.5 last year. He still left around the same time but he came home literally a month and half earlier and then lived at the feeder. Hoping its him and he is ready to go! Ready to see these next round of pics

latest cam pull, the 2 old ones are there everyday, sometimes at 3pm. the coons knocked the camera down a bit and cut off the antlers in most of the pics







hoping this is just an injury, he will be fun to watch..

this guy is still out there, he didn't show up till around September last year IIRC so we'll see....

Pretty sure you should just let me come out and show you how to get it done. This is getting a little embarrassing for you.

Glad they are back.

[jshouse]

haha, i've been embarrassed for a few years now sir...

A true east tx boy would have already gotten this done the light way...... I mean the right way [emoji12]

awesome thread man! I have a buddy that has a place just like this! the bucks are not quite as big. they summer on his place every year, couple weeks after velvet strips... they gone! unfortunately he has lots of neighbors that kill several of them every year. I sure hope you can get on one of them this year before they roll out!

good luck!!

That deer looks like a south texas native. That is an old deer.

i'm still not convinced that he is my old buck from the beginning of this thread, the MB's on this buck go up at the ends, where Big Boy's were more sweeping in. but the tine configuration is similar and age/size is right on...
