Hasn't shown himself in daylight or on camera since Dec 8. I got out of the blind @ 6 or just a lil after that eve and he was on camera from 630-820 that evening and hasn't been back.  Yardstick is the buck in the top pic but idk that I could pass the buck in the second pic. Thoughts???  
No doubt about the AR crap, just damn shame hunters don't have self control and knowledge

Yardstick...  ....I like it! 2nd buck would be hard to pass up but knowing "yardstick" was out there I'd probably wait until late, late in the season hoping he would show...

Geez ETX....you got yourself a dilemma there. Yardstick and that 10 are both really impressive. YS looks pretty young in that pic...you may take the 10 this year and hold off a year on YS.
Good luck either way...both seriously impressive! Keep us posted.

Yardstick... ....I like it! Sniper named him and it stuck. I agree... Geez ETX....you got yourself a dilemma there. Yardstick and that 10 are both really impressive. YS looks pretty young in that pic...you may take the 10 this year and hold off a year on YS.

Both these bucks are crossing my 30ac low fence place so idk that either will get a pass lol. On one hand I want the big 8 since he's older but on the other hand how often do you get a chance at a 22-24" wide buck?

Even if he showed up at 630 PM you couldn't shoot him bc it would have been after legal shooting light so I wouldn't sweat that
Good luck getting him. Does that weren't bread in the first rut should be going back into heat soon.

30 acres and low fence, I don't think I'd pass either! Not a bad dilemma to be in for sure.

The skinny one is looking up at that giant feeder like he is hungry.
Recently got a gym membership, strange folks! I like to show up the roid zombies with my full motion curls with the 55lb. bells. Not their cheater short stroked light weights. It's holarious.
