Please give your opinion on this trailcam buck
 

What kind of potential do you think he has?

Looks like he's going to be a real nice 6 pointer, but his body size sure seems small. Maybe he's just a 2 1/2 year old buck that has some real potential in 2 or 3 years.

I agree....if it makes it another 2 or 3 years...usually they will get taken by someone if they are starting to look good!

Looks good but young,hope he makes it.

I agree ... young buck with 6 points in velvet. I cannot see him any older than 2 1/2, but it is difficult to know for sure. Also, to say how he will look in 2-3 years is only a guess. With good food and good health, appears to me the rack should be fairly wide from now on.

I read a while ago that rack size when young doesn't necessarily correlate to rack size when old. I don't remember where. Anybody else ever come across this?

***Nope, never heard that one before!

I read an article in Outdoor Life that stated that exact same thing. Rack size has to do with genetics and diet more than age.

What is the date this pic was taken and where?

He seems to have a lot of mass for a young deer. I also think he could fork and be an 8pt.
