This is the best Buck I have got on my cam so far,he's no giant but I would be proud to take him as my 2nd Buck. My first was a 7 and much smaller,these pictures are from 3 weeks ago.

I'd be happy to put an arrow through him. Goodluck.

Once the rut comes along you're bound to see some other bucks cruising through. Be prepared cuz' a giant might walk right under your stand. Good luck!!

I agree...and as for your deer...If he walked by me I would let one fly. He would be my biggest with a bow

This guy is on public land,I almost had a shot at him the first day of gun season last year but did'nt take the shot because there where to many branches in the way. He caught me coming out of my tree a week later just after legal shooting hours,boy did I feel stupid. He survived ML and late bow season so I'm glad to see him again. Thanks for the encouragement, I will try to get him the first few days of bow season,if not then maybe gun season but I prefer the bow.

Good luck. I would take the chance on him if I had it. As they say, never pass on a buck you'd take the last day of the season even if its the first. Even if you're like me and only get one deer by local regs. A friend passed on a dandy last year because it meant his season would be over on opener. Sounds like a good problem to have to me.

Nice buck, best of luck to you, when does your season start?

Nothing wrong with that buck at all. Good Luck.

Our season starts Oct.1 and I hope he keeps showing up in the daytime like he is now 80 percent of the pics I have are in the early morning from 7 to 8:30 of in the evening from 6 to 8. Here is a pic as of yesterday of him.

Are your trailcams over bait or natural trails? I'm not being nosey, just wondering if they come through there by habit or to feed!!

At this time he is coming in for the food I'm sure,as well a my buddies pond which the closest water source in his core area. I found scrapes and rubs in a 1 mile circle on a ridge top behind where the food is at this time last year. I nearly shot him last year during gun season but did not have a clear shot. I believe he has a consistant scrape pattern in the area,so I believe he is coming through the area by habit.

Keep on him. Good luck this year!

Thanks,I plan on giving him my first 3 days of early Bow season in 3 different spots that surround the feeding area and water source.
