A old mountain whitetail

This is a buck that has haunted me and lost sleep over since 2010. I have yet to lay eyes on the buck ever. If it wasn't for cams I'd have no idea this buck was around. I've tried everything rattling, calling , scents and feed. He runs the area I'm hunting there's several mature bucks in here till October then they all disappear and it's just dink bucks and him. Last year i started a mock scrape and he tore it up and made 3 more over 4 ft in diameter. I hung a cam again this May and checked it June 19th and had yet to appear. I have not been able to get back up there till last Friday and he showed up on June 24th and cam died shortly after, so I don't know how he finished , but his frame looks to be more massive this year and grew a extra by brow which is a first. His left ear is almost gone looks like frost bite erodes away more and more every year his right ear is almost ripped in half . Hopefully this is the year!
This is 2011-2013 of him
This is this year

Looks like a grisly old mountain warrior.
Thanks for sharing. Maybe he'll slip up this year.

That would be something else if you could take him. Especially with the history of you and all your cam pics that would be an awesome experience.

The closeup of him in the snow is about as pretty a picture of a whitetail buck as I've ever seen! Good luck- maybe this is your year!
