Default off topic just how big is he?

got this trail cam picture today, I have a history with his pappy, missed him twice. once with a rifle (bullet deflection) and once with a bow, missed by 1/2 inch. never was good at judging distance in an open field. used the 50 when I should have used a 40 yd pin.

Big enough for many, just not old enough yet

I'm not very good at scoring but I'd say 120-130". Still in velvet but not for long.

That would my guess also, but hard to say.

Nice looking buck! The velvet really makes them look big, but he looks like a next year's buck!

I think that's the same one that was in my yard this morning at 4:30 AM eating the wife's flowers. He sure gets around.

how wide do you think he is? I passed on him opening day last year. should have seen the expression on his face when this voice from no where said "go grow up"
I think the young fella has potential.

Here up north, he looks 18" maybe 19" inside. 3 1/2 year old 8 points rarely make book, they do look nice from the front and the back. That size always gets the bow off the hanger, just doesn't get tension on the string.

Talking Off topic just how big is he ?

I would say around 19" might go 20". Give him another year or two. If you want antler growth, if you want meat In the freezer, have at it. Bill K
