Next Year's Potential

Here is a set of pictures of a buck that has been hanging around all year. We only had one sighting of him all season. I hope to see more of him as he gets older. Just curious what age group you think he is in?

2 or 3.115ish

2 for sure IMO. Definitly has some potential. If he makes it to 4 or 5 he will be a stud. WCL

well no pictures of his body from the side so its hard to say for sure, but probably 2.5

Here are some more shots from the summer that show his body a little better. If he hangs around on our property I would love to watch him grow up.

He'll be a good one

Hi D Rock: I see you are using a Wildview trail camera. What version did you use for the enclosed pictures? Thanks for sharing the pictures.

Deer is still young. More than like 2.5 he will pretty in years to come...

Sorry I forgot to include the important trail cam info. These were on a Wildview Xtreme 2. I wasn't overly impressed with the camera at first. For Christmas I got the 12V battery pack for it and it seems to do a lot better. Over the past two weeks I had 1,000 pictures with it only on 1 shot burst with 1 minute between pictures. It doesn't have the best quality pictures but it gets the job done.

Just for the fun of it here is another couple of bucks that have just shown up. The third is another body picture of the first buck.

Thanks for the information on the Wildview camera. I'm also using the external 12 volt with a 300 energizer battery. Works very well in the cold weather as compared to "C batteries" due to larger storage capacity. Nice pictures.
