Nice buck! He has some serious mass if he's just a 3.5 year old
That's what has me confused. His body screams 3 1/2, but wow that mass says older.Nice buck! He has some serious mass if he's just a 3.5 year old
I sure hope he shows up again next year. Even if he doesn't put on much extra growth, he's a dandy just as he is.agree, 3.5.
that's THE buck to hunt next year for sure, and gives 10 months of anticipation!
All of my best traditional scrapes are under Beech trees.It's the Beech tree- they always attract the best bucks!
I've notice the same thing, it must be the low-hanging branches, idk.All of my best traditional scrapes are under Beech trees.
That and the fact Beeches hold their leaves until spring. I think the leaves help hold scent.I've notice the same thing, it must be the low-hanging branches, idk.
Mine are under Cedar trees. I have one tree that had 4 scrapes under it, now it is one scrape that is 8'-10' long!All of my best traditional scrapes are under Beech trees.

This time of year, it's unpredictable upon future years. I hope for BSK and family, he is. What a great deer. Hope he makes it and they get a shot at him next yearGreat buck! Is he just passing thru? Will he be back?
We don't really see very many new bucks like this show up this late in the season. We have seen some show up this time of year that we haven't seen since August, but no new unexpected ones.
What I'm seeing exactly. Big surge of activity Nov. 28 to Dec. 2.We don't really see very many new bucks like this show up this late in the season. We have seen some show up this time of year that we haven't seen since August, but no new unexpected ones.
Just looked at several cams we haven't looked at since about mid-November…..it was as expected on a very low acorn year, about a 2-3 week delay in rut activity. Daylight and surge in general was last few days of November and first week of December.
Unfortunately for me (hunting wise), I started my new job 11/11 (2 days after muzzy opener), and I couldn't take any days off. If I were able, definitely would have taken time off during that period, rather than my usual first 3 weeks in November.
