Andy saw his buck locked down with a doe a couple of times over the last few weeks. No way to kill it. The deer came by alone tonight. That is what everyone hopes for... a lonely, monster buck!
I'm a firm believer the true giants tend to die in the second half of November. While there is nothing more exciting than the first couple of weeks of November, the second half is king for the truly rare ones. My buddy Andy helped to prove that point tonight. When I first saw the summer trail cam pics, I thought the thing would be close to 200 typical. I have no idea what the thing scores, I don't have that many fingers and didn't take time to do any math tonight...but it's a giant! G2- over 14", G3's - 12ish. Mass is unreal. Just a giant! It aint over fellas. Get yourself in a tree!
Sorry I didn't get any better pics, but here's what I snapped.[/QUOTE That is a stud of a deer Brock.I am right there with you .over the years some of the biggest bucks seem to go down.Thing is by then alot of guys are already giving up.I really enjoy the week of Thanksgiving as i have seen some huge bucks go down that week between my buddy's and i and other hunters.Just have to have patience and stick with it.
Things seem to have died off, just checked card that had 4hrs of video on it. Multiple does and bucks feeding, no anxiousness, actually the bucks were running the does off of the food. Got some great video of multiple shoving matches, also a buck snort wheezing at a doe.
I have a wild dog problem that needs attended to also.
