So the hook made it through velvet. I'd shoot him just for the distinctive rack.

Nice mature buck but ideally I'd like more mass.

This one has plenty of mass in his body but needs more in his antlers. Shoot or let him (hopefully) grow?

Weird....something happened to the other half of the rack and its during the removal of velvet so I dunno....

He will be a game time decision. He's big enough I dunno if he'd make it through the season but if he does OMG he would be a stud next year.
I have a lot of photos at this scrape, its a tree line between fields that has multiple scrapes (I put some doe urine in them the other day) and now has a feeder between this scrape and another at 30 yards from one of our buildings.

Only decent buck I have on this camera. Its down from where my son shot his buck last year. He needs another year but has great potential.

Lots of pics of coyotes on this camera, I need to do some work this year.

Above my house....has definite potential to be a game day decision. I guess I need to have a sit or two up there.

He's on this scrape almost daily. He's young but looks a lot like the buck I passed on a few years ago that you guys gave me a ton of shit about at the summer hang out (shoot). I can't wait to see him next year.

Another half rack....this is about 400 yards from my camera with the others.....wtf

He's probably on the list if he shows his face near me. Randomly showed up and I hope he stays around.

Me thinking earlier in September when you was asking if that animal was a fox or a yote...I said it was a yote. Which I 100 percent still think it was. Probably the same one. Difference is now it doesn't have its summer fur like it did then.
Ahhhh now i am following you, forgot about that photo, you're probably right, thanks

So I put in a food plot on a portion of the farm near where my brother traditionally hunts and has his cameras and a feeder. I put a camera out and then moved it to a better spot near the plot and then promptly haven't looked at it. I pulled it after my hunt on Sunday morning. I've been hunting the wrong spots on the farm!

I thought about hunting it Sunday but the wind was questionable. Here's what I (potentially) missed at under 30 yards from my stand.
