The score isn't that important to me. I prefer very clean and symmetrical looking bucks. A lot of the higher scoring bucks just don't look as pretty IMHO.

This one is gonna look great on my wall, and being a little younger he may be a little more tender too, who knows! Either way, I'm anxious to get him on the wall and on the dinner table!

Any of the 8pts are $2500?

He's hitting the protein hard. I haven't seen him at any corn feeder. Sucker's spoiled to protein. I'll stop feeding protein before you hunt him. I ain't promising tender... that's what they make mechanical tenderizers for.

He's gonna score plenty. He's still putting on length believe it or not. I didn't. But he is. I just hope he doesn't break anything rubbing out...

I've got him at 148" right now.

You were about 5 minutes early of me deciding while texting Rusty that night that I was going to let the wife shoot that 8, good luck on your hunt. We found another one she should like out there but IMO hes over 150" mark.

Yep! I'm real excited! It will be my biggest and best and actually my first ever mount-worthy buck at all!


I'm glad your wife got another one BBD84!!! Looks like he's got a lot to choose from!

Wish you had another slick 8 that size for $2500.

Yes sir he does, we hunt out there with Rusty a good bit throught the year. We dont hunt at our ranches we manage and run as its not nearly as much fun as it is to go somewhere else and see new country. Good luck, have you decided on when your going to try and hunt him ? If I see him Maybe ill get to take some pictures of him alive before you can get a chance to get down there to help the wait go by slower for you haha.

Is the South TX 8 sold?

He is very nice. I kind of regret not booking the hunt.

Yep, the more he grows the more I regret not shooting him myself. He's gonna make JGilbert's wall shine.

Rancher, you are torturing us :-)
