seeing any bucks?

Just curious as to the quality of bucks you guys (gals) are seeing now. I have been riding late in the evenings in Clarke Co, Va and have saw as many as 8, 8pts or better in 1 group. I thought maybe it was a fluke so I went back a couple days later and they were still there. Wish it was where I hunt.[

All the bucks I have seen have been small. Most of the big bucks around here stay hidden in thick stuff or come out at night. I have seen a 1-horned spike, and a 4 point. Perhaps I will cull the spike outta the herd this season if he walks under my stand.

We have some messed up genes here around my house.

Now froman you know we have a three point rule unless something has changed that i don't know about.

I have actually been seeing more racked bucks in the last three weeks than I have seen in a long time. I have been video taping three bucks ( two good ones )in my yard which is in the city limits. Right now while there in velvet their not as wary as they will be in a month but it`s nice to know that their there during bow season. dhd

We're hunting a new lease this year in E. GA. Been scouting it since Feb and put in food plots (apparently the first plots on the property in quite a while) in late May. While there are deer tracks everywhere (including some big ones that sure look like bucks) I don't have a single pic of a buck from the 50 or so our game cams have taken. In fact, most of the pics (from three different 1/4 to 1/2 ac plots) are of a single doe (as opposed to multiple deer in the same pic) looking intently at something out of camera range. Any ideas?

Seeing lot's of quality bucks this year. Don't usually see that in NC, but I've seen a lot this year. 8-15pointers with good mass and high tines.

Hope to show you a pick of one I get opening day>
