This is the best buck still showing up, how old and how do you think he will score?

Nice big 8, I'd call him 4 and be mid 120's.

Must not be too many other good ones there. His rack aint even busted. I guess its up to you and the neighbors. Whos gonna let him walk till next year or who wants a nice buck this year. Always a gamble if youll see him again with sometimes low rewards, but at 5 he may branch out some more. Every time I see a big buck in one spot he aint ever back in the same spot ever again. Very rare if he does show back up. Maybe 75 percent chance of not showing in my experiances, but I dont hunt feeders. It is different for sure. I hunted Llano as a kid. The same deer were always at the same feeders.


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.

Not being broke up, does not reflect buck numbers or quality. Lots of bucks make it through a season without breaking up. And with rainfall and good range conditions, I don't think he is gonna put on any extra tines in another year.

Its very rare around here. Ive seen a couple with broke beams at the head. AR has helped that.

I killed a couple earlier in the season. A five yr. Old with both broke brows. A six yr. Old with a broken beam tip and tine. Ive seen way worse this season. Hunt a buck and finally he presents himself with one antler. Ughh

Nice big 8. He's at least 4. I doubt he sprouts a new tine next year. May be a little bigger, but not if we have less forage. Unless you're feeding protein.
