Congrats to Momma O!!!! Nice buck!

"In the first three weeks" meaning October 1st through about the 20th or so will probably get a lot of "yes" answers. For the most part the 10 days or so of October it can be 'easy' to kill a big buck if you A) have a good buck feeding on your property and B) did your homework on him in...

Looks very much like a 2.5 to me as well. I sure wish we had some 2.5's running around like that!! Should be a good one in a few years.

I agree with you but I wouldn't be surprised at all if some of the "I'm up 25 feet" guys were a bit off on their heights. It's easy to measure a fish with a tape measure too but we all know how that goes for some guys... :D

Our stands are from between about 16 to about 21/22 to the base of the platforms on all the stands we use ladder sticks on, as someone said it's easy to know how high you are in those set up's. Occaisonally we will use a 16 or 20 foot set of sticks and then a screw in or two to get up to that...

That first buck looks to have a body like a Mack truck. That neck is going to look like an extension of his chest in a month or so. Definitely looks like an old deer. Brisket on that second buck almost looks out of place, as if it is from an injury or something. Don't get me wrong, he's a...

Looks like he's ready for Halloween!! Very cool picture

You may be able to find some 3.5 year old aspects in those pictures but with them being take in mid August I would add at least one year to my guess. They are streamlined quite a bit in the summer. I look at those pics and start to think 4.5 based on what I see, add to that the dates on the...

Wow!! Can't imagine what he'll look like in November.

He's a beauty!!!

You could try hunting out of a tree sadle style set up, that will allow you to work all around the tree.

The second picture of the first buck screams 2.5 for me, the last picture of the second buck says he's 4.5 or maybe 5.5 and with that character to boot...he'd be on my list for sure!! Middle buck looks like a possible 3.5

I'll join in. This cam location is usually great at picking up random critters...

Very cool, definitely a treasure. Sorry to hear of your families loss. Would be cool if you could track down a few of his old traps, maybe make a shadow box type of display with the liscense, a few traps, the pocket knife and maybe some other similar old gear. That would be an awesome...

Checked cams sunday, walked up to a cam that's on the inside corner of our plot and could tell the deer had been using the over hanging branches as licking brances. Pulled the card and sure enough there was a few small bucks standing on their hinds to get up in there and work that branch...

To me that big bodied deer looks like a 4yr old (or maybe 5) if I was looking at him in October or November. Being that the pic is taken in August instead of Oct or Nov I would say he is likely older than that and I would say in the 5.5 or 6.5 bracket this fall. Imagine what that buck will...

I learned/re-learned the lesson opening day (October 1st for us) last year on my way to my stand in the morning darkness. Heard two bucks sparring in the dark as I crossed a field I froze and got down but they eventually blew and took off. Made it almost across the field after that and got...

Hoosier and I have agreed on here in the past about early season tactics and it appears as though we do again this time. If you have a buck patterened now why are you going to wait until later? Be smart about your stand location and keep access and exit clean. If you have him patterened than...

When Muck initially came out and said they donated to the local humane society (Humane Association of Northwestern Rhode Island) and not the HSUS it didn't take long for the local humane society they had supposedly donated to came out and say they had not received any donation from Muck. It...

Man, are you kidding me with those bases? Definitely going to be a stud!!!
