Title: Velvet pics from last august
Post by: stormin85 on January 03, 2012, 09:32:24 AM: I know they are late but just got the camera and card back as i'll be running the camera in some different spots this spring, however figured you guys would still like to see some pics.

This is the biggest deer we have pics of, not the biggest we have seen, however we didn't see him at all during the season, hopefully i can get some pics and a pattern late this summer and see how much bigger he gets, I absolutely love the eye guards.

My guess is he will put on some good growth this year.

Post by: stormin85 on January 04, 2012, 07:47:54 AM: yeah i was thinking three his body is small and his chest and back is not really starting to droop, which if i remember right starts to happen at four, for sure by five.

that is what i'm thinking by five he will be pretty awesome, hopefully he keeps showing up and i can get an idea of what he is doing.

i have never had any real history with any deer so its pretty exciting, the more i think about it he may a the deer i bumped right before i shot mine a couple ridges over, but the deer we bumped was on the run getting the heck out of dodge so i don't know for sure, i'll probably start there though and then work my way around that area with the camera.....

we'll see
