Shooter????

[Fletch]

Last night I went through all the pics on the card I pulled last week when out in Illinois... One pic has me wondering?? It was taken in early July... Think this guy is going to be decent come Nov. ?? Appears from what I can see to have some palmation on right antler.. Definately a big bodied deer...

Looks to be a good one but it's always hard to tell from behind. For sure not a scrub.

 

[xbowguy]

Yea...like to see another pic. Can't really tell how big he is by the size of his ball sack.

 

[Isaacorps]

He wouldn’t get a pass from me...

Looks to be a good deer Rich!

 

[Chass]

Aren't those kinda pics a pain?

 

[giles]

Rich...only you know if it’s a shooter for you or not. What anyone else thinks shouldn’t matter.
That being said I think he’s 4.692 years old and will green score right at 144 7/8. I’d be a chooten fo sho.

Like Rick said hard to tell looking at his ball sack... Got one other pic of him and it's another pic from behind... So guess gotta see him in Nov to know for sure.. We have 7 cams going on that farm now so we may get a better pic... Comparing his left ear to rack it appears to be a good one..

Had a buck last year we nicknamed butthead, he was a traveler. Most of the pictures of him which were a lot featured his ass.

Dave... You are 100% right about it being a shooter in MY EYES..If it tickles my fancy when he walks by then he gets a slick trick...

Like some have already said, it’s hard to judge by the angle...but it does look like he’s got good brows and the one brow looks like it is trying to split near the tip, so he should have decent mass. The trophy is in the eyes of the beholder, so if he makes you happy, I wouldn’t hesitate.

I’d shoot him twice.....

 

[Fletch]

Here's another on same cam.. Pic was taken around same time.. He's got split brow tines and some shit comming out of his main beam near the base on his right side.. This cam is in center of farm by my stand.. It's 700 yds to nearest soy bean field and you know the big boys are out there eating.. So these are nice but unless something deep inside says WOW,,,they get a pass... Also another decent buck...

Choot 'im!

Choot ‘im agin!

If the pic is from early July then he should add a fair amount of tine length I would think. I would probably shoot.

I disagree. Clearly, this deer is 4.578 years old and 144 3/8. Sheesh. Amateur.

Looks to be done with tine length imo

Negative ghostrider...notice the tail, a lot of people forget to figure the tail.

Shoot him if he gets you going.add the inches later. Looks to be a good one.
