This is on my 20-acre property in southern OK, so he’s going down regardless if I see him in the flesh, but what do you think? 135? Maybe 140? I’m used to hunting public, so anything outside the ears looks like a monster to me And yes, I name my game cameras after Brady Bunch characters…

Hard to tell at night and in velvet and with his rack closer to cam than body. I say cause of those considerations hes smaller than you think. Ill just throw out a quick 130. And I understand the thought process when only hunting 20 acres. I remember a thread of yours last year so I think I know where you hunt public in Okla. Is your place close by that? Understood anytime someone doesnt want to answer a question like that.
At some point in life its time to quit chasing the pot of gold and just enjoy the rainbow. FR Keep your gratitude higher than your expectations. RWH

I think you will have a lot of ground shrinkage. I let several go that size last year. To be fair though I hunt on 210 acres in east Texas.

Yeah, yall might be right. The velvet might be throwing me off. Here’s another pic. Not as clear, but a different angle ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2024/09/full-67594-430020-img_0553.jpeg)

I got 127 as well I’ll let ya know how close yall are in a month or so  . My gut says he’s 130-135, but my gut isn’t very accurate most of the time.

It takes a BIG 8 point to make 130. This one made it (barely). ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2024/09/full-14913-431398-dead_deer_forward.jpg)
Silver spurs and gold tequila keep me hanging on. Pretty girls and old cantinas give me shelter from the storm.
