nice length, lacks spread, decent but not heavy mass. I'd guess around high 130's to 140. I may be wrong but don't think he'll make the 150's
he's a shooter for sure.

nice pics---two months ago i was getting only does. seems now i'm getting more bucks than does and I have also had lots of pics with young bucks sparring.
Buck #1 is a main frame 8 with spit browtines on both sides. The G3 on the right side had an injury during velvet 2 years ago. He is 4 1/2 years old. During velvet he broke the tip of the antler right at the G3 and that year the antler stopped growing at that point. A side view of it looks like a crab claw with several small points coming out it.
Both these bucks show up on a hot doe. They are both relaxed feeding on the food plot--but neither one leaving the hot doe (just pretend)--I know these boys would be hooking it up but this is just for fun. They are both relaxed. You glass both of them well--you can only shoot one of them. They are both mature bucks 4 1/2+ years old.
Which one would you shoot???
Buck #1:
Buck #2:
I have current pics of both bucks (within the last two days) however they are all night time pics. The rut is getting close so hopefully I'll get a chance at one.
and with a quartering to shot that arrow could be lodge in the off back leg. very tough to trail since there will be little to no blood. that arrow has to pass thru a lot of tissue on those quartering to shots.
good luck---the meat will be fine if you find her.

thanks guys---i think I found what I needed on the Knight and Hale website.
100 gr pyrodex with a 240 jacketed sabbot:
50 yds: 1.59
100 : 0.00
150 : -6.21
I'm right at an inch high at 50 yards so I can hold on right at 100 and adjust from there. My shot shouldn't be any longer than 140 yards so I think I'll be good.
thanks for the help
todd
