how big is he?
« on: November 17, 2010, 02:16:48 PM »
Ive got several smaller bucks and doe's on camera but this one buck looks to be the best but I can not tell how big he really is any one have any guess. I movedthe camera so this wouldn't happen again but he has not returned.

It appears the right antler is sticking way out to the side of it's head with plenty of curve to the main beam.  If the left side matches, that is one nice wt.  Good luck on spotting him during daylight.  I'd bet he's a completely nocturnal buck.

Ive been after this Black tail for about three years. This is the first year I got a pic of him. There are three or four other  bucks that use the same trail and they all travel the same direction. I seen two small two points this morning and the game warden but let them all go. The rubs in this area are massive and all over. I do believe this buck is going to stay in the dark any pointers that might change his mind?Question for ya. Have any of you noticed that the flash spooks the bucks and not the doe's. Im new to trail cams but I should get three pics of the same animal but only seem to get one of the bucks.
