Found a possible shooter buck this year(UPDATED 8-2)
« on: June 16, 2014, 10:12:22 PM »
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
Wishing I was fishing...or in Wyoming

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.

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.

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.

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

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