Sweet.

Did anyone ever tag that monster you posted last year? :confused:

No, unfortunately not. Buck number 3 is possibly the same deer, but Im not completely sure. If it is, his rack seems to be on the downward slide. I'm still undecided on the issue, because I was thinking he was only a 3.5-4.5 year old, which would be pretty young to be digressing in rack size. I will add another post later tonight, with pics from the past years and we'll see what everyone thinks.

Awesome looking bucks. You're obviously doing a great job with your management plan. Good luck putting a tag on one of those brutes this year.

Thanks. We dont have any food plots or planted fields. We only really concentrate on herd management, and we are in our 9th year of pretty heavy management. We take between 25 and 30 does every year, and an average of 4 or 5 mature bucks. We use to say it has to be 10 pts or better, but we changed it to "mature" bucks only (at least 4 yrs old). Like I said we don't utilize food plots, but we are fortunate enough to hunt in an environment that offers tons of forage. Pair all of that with above average genetics, and you start to see deer like the ones above. Getting them on camera is pretty easy. Putting them in the truck is a different ballgame.
