Saw three different 4.5 year olds and there were some new bucks cruising through on camera. Probably in the back half or almost through second rut as feeder traffic was picking up again.

Any recent Young county happenings???

Just south of you in Stephens county. Seems like rut has run it's course. Bucks and does grazing together and not much chasing going on. Have stopped seeing any new bucks here.

Hunted today and will hunt in the morning. This morning bucks were back in bachelor groups. Ruts done. I have a 7 was an 8 with broke brow tine that I plan to take. I held out hoping for a 9 that was once on camera. Time is running out. So it time to take the next best one. I have several 8's showing up that are your typical 13-14" deer. I hunt between Bryson and Graham.

Just finished going through pics this is the best buck I have but he only shows up once every two weeks. I think he still has another year to go.

That will be a Awesome buck in 1 of 2 years . Nice brow tines .

This one showed up after bow hunting all month, opening rifle season . Had not seen him until the evening before. He is a Young county buck .

Nice buck👍

Good buck, like the bladeing he has.

Looks like a big bodied deer this late in game

He is probably the biggest bodied deer I have shot . The mass on the antlers is awesome. He is almost 19 inches wide on the inside spread. The pictures really don’t do him justice . Don’t have a clue what he will score . Will attempt that when I get him back from the taxi.

Fantastic

Great buck love the mass. Congrats

Some recent Young county boys.....

Man down. Had to take the stud in the bunch for some meat.

Very nice buck!

Nice deer 👍

Nice one Roc, whereabouts are you in Young Co.?

Is that a 444 or 45/70?

Stonewall co is slow still to warm

Was kicking around the idea of heading out in the AM BUT with it’s going to be 90* think I’ll just stay home

Jm marling 45/70 guide

Bought that gun this year . Was wanting one for a long time . Found a good deal on one earlier this year so purchased it. Wasn’t sure if was going to be to much on whitetail but after recovering my buck realized that there was no more damage to the meat than my 270 or 308. The shot I made on him was about 150 yards . Wouldn’t want to go much further than that with it especially with the small scope that is on it . But it got the job done . Would guess this old buck would have dressed out a bit over 200#. Was a great season this year .
