MY TRIGGER FINGER MUST BE BROKE. I HAD AN AWESOME HUNT THIS WKND AND CAME HOME EMPTY HANDED. TAKE A LOOK AT THE BUCKS AND TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK. I PASSED IN HOPES TO SHOOT THE 10 THAT IS SHOWING UP TO MY FEEDER. ANY GUESSES ON AGE AND SCORE OF THE 10 AND HEAVY 9. EITHER WAY BOTH WILL BE SHOT THIS YEAR IF THEY WALK OUT AGAIN. THE HEAVY 9. WATCHED HIM FOR AN HOUR SATURDAY MORNING. REALLY REGRET NOT SHOOTING THIS DEER. WHATS YOUR GUESS ON SCORE?    NARROW 9

Looks like you have a party at your feeder. That 10 does look nice! It's still early in the season, so hold out for the 10!

Hard to tell re. score on the 10, but that Heavy 9 will break 130, he would be d--n hard for me to pass up. When the rut gets going, the area around that feeder should be very interesting!

Looks like you've got yourself in a jam!
Kudos for the restraint in not shooting the heavy 9; he is close to a P&Y deer. That 10 will be over 130.

All depends on what your looking for. You got a buck picked out you want and your hunting him. Couple years ago I shot a 5 YO 6 pt that scored a whopping 105 standing next to a 4 YO 140 inch ten. Its been 3-4 years and we still have yet to see that 10 pt again.

Decisions, decisions. Several of them look pretty nice. Give the 10 a while to show up.
A clear conscience is often the sign of a fuzzy memory.

Where ya at in Gillespie Co? I am in a similar dilemma with 9, 10 and 11 pt bucks I've got showing up. This year the bucks are looking great, have a handful of young bucks that are gonna be brutes as well. I'm between F'burg and K'ville on 16. Best of luck with that 10!
