Tominator Posted May 18, 2005 Report Share Posted May 18, 2005 Making my morning coffee looking over my field as I do every morning, and noticed something out of place. I figured it had to be a deer and it was. I grabbed the binocs, and it appeared to be a 2 year old with about 7" of antler, and you could see where the brow tines were starting to nub. I grabbed the camera, but he turned north and ran across the neighbor's field so I didn't get a picture. Pretty cool though, thought you guys would like the update. I need to get Tom's trail camera out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaskMan Posted May 18, 2005 Report Share Posted May 18, 2005 Re: \"Houston, We Have Antlers....\" I saw a group of 3 bucks on Mon. night while out for a jog. One of them was a big old grey buck, looked like an old fella. Not a heck of alot of antler yet on them but some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhino Posted May 18, 2005 Report Share Posted May 18, 2005 Re: \"Houston, We Have Antlers....\" Cool Chris. Haven't seen them yet here. I have one camera out right now that's been out for about 3 weeks. I'll check it again this weekend and put out my other camera too. I know I'm going to show a swine envasion on the camera I already have out. I didn't put out any corn or other feed either. They just had it all rooted up in front of my camera when I checked it 2 weeks ago. I only had 10 pics taken so I just left it there to try to get some more photos.

Squirrelhunter91 Posted May 21, 2005 Report Share Posted May 21, 2005 Re: \"Houston, We Have Antlers....\" My bucks are sprouting forks off the main bases. They have browtines already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAbowhunter4life Posted May 22, 2005 Report Share Posted May 22, 2005 Re: \"Houston, We Have Antlers....\" I have seen a bunch of bucks this year with knobs and some are already sprouting points. One very impressive deer I saw though was in the industrial park I work in.I was driving to work about 3 weeks ago and a very big 6 point ran out in front of me in velvet, and I mean very big. This place grows HUGE bucks and turkey. Come November it looks like a Realtree Outdoors video up there with HUGE bucks chasing does everywhere. I am willing to wager that it's the same MONSTROUS 12 point I saw up there last year. Only difference is this year, I may have permission to hunt the area Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
