after several weeks and hundreds of pictures of the same doe and fawn, I got this picture of what looks like a decent buck wandering by my trail cam last night. I hope we wasn't just passing through, and decides to stay a while.

nice buck! hopefully he sticks around for you.

EastWaViking · « **Reply #2 on:** August 22, 2009, 11:55:49 AM »

from what I can tell with my poor quality trail cam pic, he looks like a straight 6x6. What do you think he'd score? I'm guessing he might squeeze into P&Y?

runningboard · « **Reply #3 on:** August 22, 2009, 12:36:22 PM »

very nice! I think he'll make P & Y pretty easily. not gonna embarrass myself with a score guess but the minimum for typical whitetail is 125

good lookin buck for sure

ELKBURGER · « **Reply #5 on:** August 22, 2009, 01:17:38 PM »

I'd say p&y for sure-dandy, symetrical buck

That's a definate opening day shooter!!

Viking. That is a Stud of a buck. 100% guaranteed he will go P & Y. As you mentioned, he is most likely a good solid 6 x 6 and very symmetrical. I'd sure like to get a look at him from the front. Hard to guage the mass, main beam length and inside spread, but if they all fell into place, I think he could go 160 B & C; most definately 150+. Just my opinion, but great looking buck.

thanks for the info blacktailer. If I get another picture of him, especially straight on, I'll be sure and post it.

blacktailer · « **Reply #9 on:** August 22, 2009, 08:53:30 PM »

It's just an opinion. I've been fooled before from pics, but he looks real nice. I'd like to see how long those brows are; assuming they're there. Nonetheless, get him on the ground and lets worry about the score later!!!! Thanks for posting

great buck man good luck on him

ELKBURGER · « **Reply #11 on:** August 23, 2009, 08:33:00 AM »

A front veiw would really tell. Width and G1s. Definetly, get him on the ground!

(What looks like a decent buck) What are you talking about that thing is a toad! thanks for posting.

GrainfedMuley · « **Reply #13 on:** August 23, 2009, 07:58:35 PM »

I want to hunt NOW

bow4elk · « **Reply #14 on:** August 23, 2009, 08:07:32 PM »

Looks like he'll make the book. That is, any book you choose to enter him in. Love to see WA whitetails holding their own against IA, KS, IL, etc.

That's a bute, Clark.

nice buck! i just got a couple of cameras and put one out tonight so hopefully somthin will walk by it. i hope its as big as that one too!!!

Pathfinder101 · « **Reply #17 on:** August 24, 2009, 07:45:46 PM »

I'd say 150" from the angle provided. He will surely make P&Y.

EastWaViking · « **Reply #18 on:** August 28, 2009, 07:08:51 AM »

Checked the trail cam this morning and got one more picture of him. It's a little better than the last pic. He's not very wide looking, but I still hope I see him during the season!

halflife65 · « **Reply #19 on:** August 28, 2009, 07:21:05 AM »

That's a really nice buck. I don't think I'd worry too much about being really wide. SHOOT! SHOOT!

MtnMuley · « **Reply #20 on:** August 28, 2009, 07:38:04 AM »

I'm pretty sure that's just a little better than a decent buck. STUD!!

EastWaViking · « **Reply #22 on:** August 28, 2009, 09:46:50 AM »

ok, now that there is a better picture, what do you think he scores? I'm guessing 140-ish.

HUNT · « **Reply #23 on:** August 28, 2009, 10:13:10 AM »

155 or so. Thats a great buck. BOOM!

Pathfinder101 · « **Reply #24 on:** August 28, 2009, 10:21:53 AM »

Im still saying "150-ish". I would say 140's if he didn't have that 6th point.

croix · « **Reply #25 on:** August 28, 2009, 10:26:43 AM »

G3's look pretty long and I don't see much in the way of deductions. True he is not REALLY wide but I bet he still makes 150+ If I got him he would certainly be on the wall. Great lookin buck. Go get him!

lewy · « **Reply #26 on:** August 28, 2009, 10:29:49 AM »

Wow, real nice buck!! Hope you get a whack at him!

MtnMuley · « **Reply #27 on:** August 28, 2009, 12:17:02 PM »

I rough scored him with my guesses and came up with exactly 150". Looks like a 155" incher though!

firecrotch · « **Reply #28 on:** August 28, 2009, 01:24:08 PM »

hell of a buck there EastWa

CoryTDF · « **Reply #29 on:** August 28, 2009, 01:26:40 PM »

um..... i would pass him up............ i'm---

the next post you make with that buck better have him on the ground! Good luck

bowhunterforever · « **Reply #30 on:** August 28, 2009, 05:59:24 PM »

Thats a dandy!

I'd say 155ish.
