Default Maybe a shooter?

These two bucks were on my two different trailcams yesterday. The night time pic was right under my stand.

Can anybody zoom this up and take a guess at what he might score? He's walking away with his head down and you can't really see but i'm just wanting someone to guess based upon what they can see. It's easier to tell if you can save the pic and zoom it up close. I haven't seen hardly anything in my hunting area this year. The daytime buck pic is not a shooter for me this year.

The first buck is bigger one but I would take either if they walked under my stand

I would guess about 140 on the first one but I would not pass the second one where I hunt

I had the trail camera pointing the other way because i had some does heading in that direction. Then this buck comes from the other direction and i get a rearend pic! He does have a big set of b*lls though!

Assuming that daytime buck has a left G3.....I'd put him just over 100".

First one looks like a PA buck.. skinny tines.. both are nice, I'd probably take either of them with a bow...

First one looks like 115-120 to me.. (8 point right?)

the other looks right around 100" as Jeff said..

That's the first and only picture i've gotten so far of either buck so i'm not sure if the buck in the nightime shot is 8 point but he sure looks like it. I've been going once a week and checking cams so it will be next Friday before i go back.

The first one looks pretty nice but remember seeing a buck from behind always makes their rack appear much bigger. I'm guessing 105-110 on that first one and around 100 on the second one. Where I'm from I would not shoot either one. It looks like they would both have some nice potential. Your area may be different though, do what you feel is right.
