Camera out one week and 3 Bucks on the hit list...can you score and age please!
I have had my trail cameras out for about one week now and have already 3 shooters. Help me in the score and age as I am not very good at it this time of year. Give me your opinions on shoot or not as I hunt around central Oklahoma. You can even help me name them if you want! lol Thanks in advance.....

While buck #1 would definitely score the most, I believe all 3 of 'em are mature and all 3 are shooters. But #2 looks to be the oldest, and #3 will probably never be more than 8 points either of those 2 need to go from a management perspective. #1 would probably be the only one that will show very much improvement if he lives to see another year, but there again he is definitely a shooter this year and a beautiful trophy for anyone!

Mountain Cur....I found the sheds to #3 last year and I would say he did not gain very many inches and was a solid 8 point last year with the same characteristics. I think you are right when you say he will wont ever be anymore than an 8 point. I can tell you that more than likely than not if one of these 3 walks under my stand after Oct 1st then I probably wont hesitate on taking one down! Thanks

I hunt in central Oklahoma and I have managaed this property very closely as it is where I built a house on approx 2 years ago. I have approx 160 acres that I put most care into. I have great neighbors that dont hunt very often and provide no pressure on the deer. I have planted food plots and provided sanctuaries for them. I hope to keep this going as long as I can. It has taken approx 4 years to see deer like this. Thanks for the replies and I have plenty of friends asking to go hunting! lol
