Post by: Wanttohuntmore on September 15, 2020, 08:29:45 PM: Both of those are nice bucks. How long were you running cams on them and how many cams? Also what times were you in the stands? This is motivating me to try for a nice blacktail.

Title: Re: Another big buck down
Post by: rainshadow1 on September 16, 2020, 10:45:32 AM: Not real wide, but P&Y... I'd be curious!

Post by: Seabass on September 16, 2020, 10:58:03 AM: WOW!
Title: Re: Another big buck down
Post by: fishnfur on September 16, 2020, 03:52:31 PM: Without even knowing the numbers, I'd say that buck was P&Y Book for sure. From memory, it's something like 115 or 125 inches.

Hey Mallard Masher - isn't this the same buck we were looking at on another thread and tying to guess the age?
Title: Re: Another big buck down
Post by: Mallardmasher on September 16, 2020, 07:59:26 PM: Good mass and length, average for width, probably gross in the 125-130 range, but net will be lower. P&Y all day long, but not a booner.

He was the buck that I was asking the age on, and his teeth very worn and missing, so probably on the back side as horn growth goes, he had a nice Roman snoze.

Typical minimum is 95

Non is 115

Title: Re: Another big buck down
Post by: fishnfur on September 17, 2020, 06:18:24 PM: He's a lot more impressive in daylight photo. You're a hell of a friend to let your buddy hunt that buck when you could have sat on him for another year (if he survived the season) and hunted a buck next year with potential that we could only begin to guess at what he might have become. Sometimes genetically gifted bucks like these suddenly sprout droppers, super mass, and/or other craziness. Whatever the case, he's a great trophy.

Based on the photo, I'm only giving him one more year in my guesstimate from the other thread. 4.5 - 5.5 year old. No real hint at the typical Roman nose of an old buck, and the eyes still appear to be that of a 3 - 5 year old. I'm still not blown away with his body/chest. Photos are deceiving, what would you guess his weight was? Let us know the answer if you get the tooth aged.

Congrats to your friend. To me, that is a BT of a lifetime. (I don't even consider fantasizing about seeing bucks like 3Nails and SkagitSteel kill.)
