elkoholic Posted August 25, 2018 Report Share Posted August 25, 2018 With archery season starting next Saturday, pictures like this stir up the increasing adrenaline a little. This camera is about 50 yards from my house and has produced very little in the way of buck activity this year, which is not normal. I will not hunt anywhere near the house but just knowing they are around is kind of exciting. Even though I will be mainly chasing elk during archery season a buck of this caliber just might change my mind. zoomed in he still looks interesting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted August 27, 2018 Report Share Posted August 27, 2018 Either of those would be potential targets here Dave. The backyard here is pretty well all I hunt. While much different than the Wyoming hunt I took my oldest daughter on in 2010, there are certainly different challenges. Wish I had close access to thousands of acres of spot and stalk country.

Ravin R10 man Posted August 27, 2018 Report Share Posted August 27, 2018 I would not pass either one up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elkoholic Posted September 19, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2018 No more velvet and he still looks pretty good. Not a lot of mass but good tine length. He only shows up at night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted September 19, 2018 Report Share Posted September 19, 2018 Cool character with the kicker off the back of the right 2. Really, I don't know that that buck is older than 3.5, I think the further buck in the first pic may be a nicer one. Guess that would be one of those have to see first hand while on stand, and also would depend on what else I was seeing where I hunt. I know we have had a 5.5+ year old buck around here that is not very pretty, but I would be happy to kill him myself or put one of my family members on him.
