Title: Re: Whitetail, shooter?
Post by: yousowise on August 14, 2009, 09:21:46 PM: He has got a lot of mass compared to most of the whitetails I seen, I would definitely pull the trigger on him, unless of course his papa shows up. ;)

I will tell you what he would look like just as he is now..because he would be on my wall. :chuckle: Nice main beams, nice mass, overall nice. Can't shoot the big ones if you shoot the small ones. Of course the definition of small and big are different to different hunters. Nice buck..165 inches my guess.

Post by: SHANE(WA) on August 21, 2009, 03:08:23 PM: I almost have him talked into passing on him this year, just think of the possibilites next year could be 180, only thing this buck is lacking is tine length. ;)

Well, to be honest it was probably close to the 20th spot i have baited this year, i started jumping baits and cameras all over the place starting back in june. I have gotten pictures of alot of decent bucks, but just kept moveing spots until i found this guy, and to be honest, im still baiting new spots every week. Its probably mostly luck that i found him, but the more spots i try to bait the better my odds get.. this spot is a real honey hole... i probably have pictures of 6 diffrent bucks in that same spot that would make P&Y..

My main staples would be corn and sweet fead. The funny thing is some places they prefer sweet fead and some corn.. this buck deff likes plain corn more then sweet fead.
