But had an interesting evening hunt. Got to my spot at 4:15 to see 2 does standing under one of my stands in the cut beans. I sat and watched and debated if I should sit in that stand or go to the one I sat in last week. I decided to wait til the 2 does moved on and went and sat in that stand. Perfect wind. Wasn't to long and I had a family of coons right under my stand, seen a couple turkeys, then caught a glimpse of a buck directly downwind of me about 200 yds away. In the area of the other stand. Forgot the binocs in the truck but I could see his rack from where I was at. So I knew he was nice. It was getting real close to sundown and I had to decide if I should make a sneak on him. He was down in a ravine and the upper field is alot higher. And the wind was favorable so I was going to try it. Start climbin down my ladder and a deer goes tearing by me. I just shook my head cause I knew I'd screw something up. Put my feet on the ground and grabbed my bow and I was 5 yards across the fence from 2 coyotes. They seen me and took off. Directly at the buck. He didn't spook as much as I thought he would but he did move off before I could make the sneak to him.
But, wondering if he came from where I thought he did, I checked my cam. And just as I thought. He was at the other stand. My judgement failed me again
Here he is. Any good score guessers out there want to give me an estimate of him? Just so I can beat myself senseless!!

Its hard to tell what kind of mass he has, but his spread is 18"+ Id bet. Depending on his mass Im guessing upper 120 to mid 130s. He doesnt look to be 2 or 3 yrs old even so in another year or two he could be a dandy 150. Cool buck, hope ya put him down.

Ive seen & passed on alot of 110 & 120 & he doesnt look like them. He's got a little more mass on the tines. 110-115s are skinny little tines, with tight racks & he aint sportin pencil size tines or a tight basket. I think youll be suprised when ya put the tape to him.

As for uploading from your phone, good luck with that one. Youll probably have to upload it from your home pc.
Again, congrats on the doe. Team Pass Thru is in 1st place & steadily securing the lead. We have more kills that any other team also. Just wait till we start putting antler on the scoreboard. Im expecting over a thousand inches of antler on our scorecard by seasons end. But keep on knockin down the early season slick-heads, its great practice & builds confidence for those buck fever shots later in the season.

Went out yesterday evening again and didnt see any bucks, I think the october lull is setting in. I did manage to get a coyote though. He was pestering a porcupine about 12 yards away from my stand. I think the porcupine would have won anyway but i figured id help him out.
