In a newer spot... was a elk spot for years, but have been looking for a drop tine buck that I found last year running cams to see if hes alive. There is no sign of him yet, but this spot I found shed hunting on a long ridge with lots of benches with a huge scrape on it. There is 3 active scrapes now on the ridge being used already. There are 12 bucks so far on cam and this is the biggest one and one other that should be nice.

The bottom buck looks like a bruiser. PM me grid coordinates and I'll get him mounted with an official score asap in September! Nice bull too

Both are the same...the top one is 7 days later than the bottom pic...grew alot. I am hoping some g4's are coming he could have some huge beams if he does. He is double the size of any buck I have on cam right now.

Could be a dandy if it sticks around.

Looks nice man. Now get back on the treadmill so you can fill that elk tag!

huntnnw · « **Reply #6 on:** June 16, 2014, 11:02:04 PM »

Hes been here all spring... hope so..I have seen bucks start out looking like they have huge potential only to fizzle out with not much growth after mid to late June..crossing fingers he keeps going.

huntnnw · « **Reply #7 on:** June 16, 2014, 11:03:42 PM »

HAHAHA! I have been stairclimbing since Feb plus 200 mi hiking this spring and weighlifting and now started interval running now till Sept.

Nice work man! Hope you pull a toad outta there!

Here is the wide one..grew quite abit, but unfortunatley he wont put on a g4 it looks like. Plus a few others about 14 different bucks have shown up here

Doublelunger · « **Reply #11 on:** June 24, 2014, 11:07:58 PM »

Probably no g4, but I believe July is the month where they grow the most, up to an inch a day. so he still has a lot of potential.

huntnnw · « **Reply #12 on:** June 24, 2014, 11:39:07 PM »

I actually dont see a ton more growth with him...his beams are still growing and his tines will grow a little, but not a ton. I see 2 different types of deer some are basically done by late june and some are just starting to grow a bunch then

GUscottie · « **Reply #13 on:** June 25, 2014, 01:23:46 AM »

He is still going to be a nice buck. I can't wait to see his growth as the summer continues

huntnnw · « **Reply #14 on:** June 25, 2014, 01:34:46 AM »

Id like to be wrong with his growth... Im still searching for the buck from last year that I had on cam maybe he will show up in August like last year

That's very true man. I had a 5 pt and a big non typical that used to run together. By late June the 5 pt was almost fully developed and the non typ was just getting past his G2s. By late July the non typ had surpassed the 5pt. You can't judge antler growth by date. Nice bucks man.

huntnnw · « **Reply #16 on:** July 06, 2014, 10:31:31 PM »

big 4 keeps adding a little everytime I check looks like his beams will keep growing some and g3's a little

this buck i think has the greatest potential in this spot to be the biggest one he is just starting to grow versus that big 4

This is a buck Ill look for next year hes got potential to be big next year

some elk

Great pics.

oldleclercrd · « **Reply #18 on:** July 07, 2014, 10:08:16 AM »

Nice one man

huntnnw · « **Reply #19 on:** July 20, 2014, 11:12:24 PM »

This buck will end up as the biggest at this spot late grower

big 4..trying to grow a g4

Shane good looking buck hopefully you can fill your tag with him. Thanks for the pics. My normal spots are not producing so far...

huntnnw · « **Reply #21 on:** July 20, 2014, 11:38:38 PM »

thx..this was a new spot as I was looking for a droptine and trashy buck i found last year..hoping he made it this year, but havent found him yet. Theres a couple here I would whack

coop2424 · « **Reply #22 on:** July 20, 2014, 11:42:14 PM »

New spot but seems like a good spot... I unfortunately have not been able to devote the time I usually do to scouting but hopefully will be able to get out more in the coming weeks.. Good luck to your season didn't you draw a good elk tag?

bowhunterforever · « **Reply #23 on:** July 20, 2014, 11:45:02 PM »

Looks like the big 4 added some good tine length in a couple weeks

huntnnw · « **Reply #24 on:** July 20, 2014, 11:55:35 PM »

yeah I drew Mt view archery elk with Bullblaster on here. Got 2 cams down there and adding 3 more this week or next.

The big 4 would get whacked if I see him

calib · « **Reply #25 on:** July 21, 2014, 06:39:24 PM »

there is a lot of killing to do there

huntnnw · « **Reply #26 on:** August 11, 2014, 09:55:01 PM »

I had a cam malfunction here,so I only got 3 days of pics!

this buck exploded in growth in the last 2 weeks...he wasnt even a buck Id blink an eye at in mid july.

this buck is turning into a nice one. The middle buck I have a shed off him from last year
