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?

Fat deer get shot. Fat deer with antlers get shot twice.
Been looking through some photos.
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.
Another half rack yet not the same from above but the same camera...wtf is going on?
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
Another view
He's probably on the list if he shows his face near me. Randomly showed up and I hope he stays around.
Whatcha thinking I'm not followingBlack tip on the tail of that coyote...hmmm
Nice bucks too!
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.
And yet there's more

That has the looks of an antlers doe. FREAK!
Or is it carrying that back leg and that is why it is so thin?

The ONLY photos I have of this stud. I would poop myself to throw steel or lead at him in person. We have no other photos of him but I see his genetics in other smaller bucks. Any ideas on score?
Yeah and I've been hunting everywhere else on the farm. I have sat one morning a few hundred yards away but never would have seen anything the cam got in view due to the rolling hills of the farm.
I set the food plot up with the idea of pulling in deer once the crops come down... looks like @at1010 's mix may be doing it.

I would guess 140"ish. The one behind him doesn't look too shabby either
