Would you shoot this deer?
 

This is the first decent buck picture that we've taken since putting out the cameras (2 weeks ago). This photo was taken about 4 hours after we had placed the camera at this location.

I think he'll walk this year... I'm going to give him mid to low 120's by the time he finishes growing.

To me he's bigger then low to mid 120's. I'd say more like mid 130's if not 140. I'd be shooting! Whatever works for ya though. Good luck!!!

I would have to have a better pic to say for sure but he looks good to me.

Tough to tell & depends on what else you got. With only that pic, he'd be a game time decision.

RE: Would you shoot this deer?
 

Definitely a nice deer! Looks to almost be outside his ears. If the hunting pressure on the nearby properties isn't too bad, I may let him walk this year. But if people are hunting every acre around this spot, my considerations may change. See what else you get pictures of during the next month or two, and then decide?!? The decision has to be right for your situation.

I have to agree with this. He does look like 130"s or so, judging from the pic. He's out past his ears pretty good also.

i cant tell how old he is from that pic so i can say

RE: Would you shoot this deer?
 

I personaly would take him and soley depends on how much other activity was out there, meaning if there is bigger ones then I might be more patient for a few weeks.

I thought so too but maybe were off.[8D] It seems to me he's got some great tine length. These bucks are a pain to score when there in velvet though!
