RE: Question on deer hoof growth
Interesting topic.
I have all the benoits books and video's and never heard anything about them only going after bucks with tracks 3 inches or wider...... I think I saw 2 1/2 inches wide a couple times and 5-6 inches long they go for. They also look at the distance between the left and right tracks. Anything better then a foot is a good buck because as bucks get older their chests get wider.
I hope Shed33 posts again how large his deers hooves were. Remember though there will be some shrinkage. Maybe you guys could share how large the trees are these bucks your shooting rub on??
