Hey everyone I finally have a few bucks coming in at my family farm pretty regularly! I am wondering do y'all think this buck is 13"? I know y'all get tired of this question but he looks close to me?!

Probably not the answer you want but he is definite not 13". Good luck, never know what will show up during the rut

I dont think he is, not worth the risk on that one to me.

I feel your pain, but he is not there. I hunt far NE TX and I have not had a legal buck on camera this year. They'll move more as it gets cooler. I don't know where you are, but it's going to be a bumper crop of acorns at my place. That's where I'd hide. They'll be there until the acorns sour.

Thanks!!
Matt

I agree with all of the comments above. He may come close but definitely NOT worth the chance. He looks about 12-12.5" to me.

The thing that I noticed year after year is that the bucks I see in preseason all seem to move on when season starts and then some new ones start coming in. Late season I start seeing the preseason bucks again.
