Thats tough to say Farm hunter, its difficult to dertermine if the rack is even on each side, but if it is and theres not to many deducts, just guessing I would say borderline Pope/Young citiation which is 125. You just have to get that bad boy and let us know. Good luck, Bobby

Thanks guys,

I've replayed the tape in Slo-Mo 100 times, and freeze framed it to try to count points.

As of Aug 7, I'm pretty sure its a 9 point, though its very possible that the right side will also have the 10th point, though maybe only 1-2". If it turns out to be 9, I think he will not make P&Y, not that it would disuade me from shooting!!

I'm estimating this deer at 3-1/2 yrs old -and will dress out over 170 lbs once the rut kicks in. Its intersting to note, that the second buck in dominance (this group), is a wide (18&quot 6 point, with white markings, not a true piebald. He doesn't appear in the pics I posted as he was well to the left that evening. He also is a heavy deer, 160 lb plus, if he bulks up in the neck.

In all, we've identified 4 or 5 bucks over 2-1/2 yrs, using the property this year. For us, this is better than average, the west end of our property is bordered by 200 acres of swamp, and thick growth, and we rarley see the good bucks (no fields) that work that land until hunting season.

I'll be sure to let you all know if we are successful with a bigun'.
