woodsman2230 Posted August 24, 2008 Report Share Posted August 24, 2008 I got these two pictures of bucks the other day on my new trail cam. Came anyone help me score them? The first buck I was looking at is on the right standing broadside to the camera. I think he is an 8 point scoring maybe in the 120's. The second buck is another 8 point on the left walking towards the camera. I think he might gross P&Y but again im not sure. What do you guys think? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

wtnhunt Posted August 24, 2008 Report Share Posted August 24, 2008 Hard to judge a score from those pics at a distance really. Do not see any of those bucks making pope and young though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NY_Bowhunter14 Posted August 24, 2008 Report Share Posted August 24, 2008 second one could look like it would go maybe 115... first one is too hard to tell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhine16 Posted August 24, 2008 Report Share Posted August 24, 2008 Can't really tell from the pics, but i don't see either P&Ying. That second one looks to be the biggest, but he looks 10-25" from P&Y Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BowtechTurkeyHunter Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 Both bucks are very young deer I would give them a little longer unless you have no other choices ... sometimes you have to let em walk practice good QDM and you wont regret it.

Steve I probably will let him go, but the only thing is that Im almost 100% positive that he will get killed during the rifle season. That place gets hunted hard by rifle hunters especially the people that live on the bordering property. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said its up to you ... good luck nailing him Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fly Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 It's tough from those pictures, but I doubt either of those deer will score more than 100. I took my largest racked (8-point) shotgun buck last season. I thought he'd be over 100 easy, but didn't even make 90 points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toddyboman Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 first deer.....way to hard to tell from that pic. second deer....90 maybe 100. Both look young.... I would let them go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest flockstopper Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 if your neighbors are hunting hard during rifle, let yours rest or don't pressure it very hard, those bucks will hang up on your ground and you can let them get bigger!

wildthing Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 both of those deer are young. I'd pass on them for a year or 2 for sure. I don't think either would score real well. Remember...deer look bigger in velvet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said its up to you ... good luck nailing him Steve I dont know if he was legal last year. We have a 4 point on one side antler restriction.

Born4it Posted August 26, 2008 Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 I'd say maybe 115/120. Probably no more than that. Hard to tell. I bet you come across something bigger! Take care, Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
