I'd say he's an older one - he's got the sway back and the saggin belly. Pics are a little noisy - these were taken just before dark and I had my ISO cranked right up on my camera. I'm pretty sure he's a 9 point but all the side shots I got of himwere too blurry to tell. Better ones to come - hopefully.

Very nice! Did you get that pic locally, in Smithville Flats? I used to hunt off German Hollow, Ridge and Maroney Rds years ago. We allways saw nice Bucks during small game season(before I Bowhunted) but never during gun. It's been more than 25 years now since I've seriously hunted up there. TONS of State land. Lots of downstaters also. And what's with the monks, or whatever they are, just past Gates farm on G Hollow Rd?
Those pics kind of make me want to rekindle some old friendships up your way!

Very Nice! V-E-E-E-E-R Y NICE!!!

Very nice Pic awsome Buck Thank you for shring the Photo.

John.

You ain't kidding about the body size and probable age of that buck! Good luck nailing him this year!

Hey Jbow - this deer is closer to Mcdonough than Smithville. But there is some nice ones around this year. Heres a young ten point from a couple weeks ago.

Very nice Dave! A guy I work with in the Binghamton Post Office lives out there in McDonough. We have talked at length about all the Deer he sees out in his neighborhood. I'm kind of locked into my neighborhood up here by the airport for hunting, but I get out your way when I'm looking for a nice ride on my motorcycle. Chenango County is just beautiful! So are those Deer pics.

Good Luck This Season!
John
