Default RE: How many mature bucks?

1/1 bowhunting for me. 4.5 yearsminimum.That was the first BUCK i saw this year, period.

After that, I went out a few times with a camera and saw three more (3.5+) in four sits. One 125" 8pnt, one 130" eight, and one 135" nine. Rather odd not seeing any monsters actually (besides the one I took)

That does not do it justice really, as my brother(first year bowhunter) has been using some of my stands also and has seen probably around 8 additional mature bucks. So that would be about 12 individual mature bucks in a 1.5 mile diameter circle (four properties). Granted a lot of that was the chase and breeding phase of the rut so most of those were not on their core range.
