Author Topic: The same buck 2 weeks later (Read 3845 times)

I checked one of my trail cams this evening. Last time I was there was two weeks ago, and that time I got a picture of a buck from May 12th. This time I got a buck, on May 26th, exactly two weeks later. I think it's the same one.

Do you guys think this is the same buck?

Pictures from two weeks ago:

yes, the notch in his right ear is a dead giveaway

Yes for sure! Like big p said, the ear tip on the right side shows that it is the same buck.

Anybody have any guesses on how big this buck is going to be?

Good enough

my guess is he will be a nice 2x

bobcat · « **Reply #9 on:** June 05, 2011, 10:59:23 PM »

Yeah, I think he will probably be good enough too. I'm just not sure how to hunt him. Unless I can start getting pictures on a more consistent basis. Only catching him twice, in over four weeks, doesn't help a whole lot. I'd be much happier if I was getting pictures of him at least every other day. I think I will try to put a couple more cameras out in the same general area and hopefully I can find a trail that he uses more often.

That's what I would do. Try to get more of a pin point idea on his travel areas. I would say he will be decent for sure. I would say a 3 point, now you just have to wait and watch him grow

Probably a 2.

You can also see the scratch on his Left Hip/thigh in both sets of pics. He is growing nicely!

iRem · « **Reply #15 on:** June 06, 2011, 11:42:21 AM »

I think he might be elusive, looks like he's been around and in a scuffle a couple of times. Looking at the big scratch and notch out of he right ear, he's a scrapper. Might be a hard one to get to.

Maybe he bumped into Mike Tyson

Bob,

How are is he from the clear cut?

Remember the heavily used deer trails along the grade at the edge of the timber?

That might be a good place for a camera.

bobcat · « **Reply #18 on:** June 08, 2011, 06:11:29 AM »

This one is almost a mile from there, so I'm not sure if he travels that far or not. There are no other obvious feeding areas as far as I can tell. But I did wonder since I only got this buck twice in 5 weeks, if he is spending more of his time further to the east, near that clearcut.

He seems to be missing part of his ear in the bottom picture but I can't see that in the top pictures??

bobcat · « **Reply #20 on:** June 19, 2011, 11:21:51 PM »

Checked the same camera today and I got another buck this time, at least I think it's a different buck.

iRem · « **Reply #21 on:** June 21, 2011, 12:59:53 PM »

I would say that you have 2 bucks in the area!!

I still like the first one.
