Velvet bucks
« on: August 08, 2014, 10:57:33 AM »
Glassed 3 bucks last night. Pics aren't the best, but the best I can do with a cell phone and spotter just under a mile.

Wow...some dandy bucks.
:fire.:

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

I have a pic of a real bruiser of a velvet non typical muley buck if I only knew how to post it. I will text it to anyone who wants to put it up. Stupid Smart phones.

Well obviously every hunter has their own opinion, but yeah I would like to see bucks like this reach their full potential as well.

On the same token, these "little bucks" might be a buck of a lifetime for someone. To each his own I guess.

Your right though that it would be interesting letting these bucks grow. I posted up some mulies the other day and the same thought entered my mind.
