Another old buck

Have been following this buck for yrs, have a couple sets of sheds, many cam pictures, a couple good encounters with him in 07. I actually haven't seen him since last Nov., no sheds, no pics. He showed up on a cam a week ago. Not as tall as he once was but big and massy!

Man oh man look at the massive beams on that sucker, great deer Kaare!

Yeah, the last pic really shows the massy beams. Nice pics!

man what a stud

Yes sir he is a stud,
Kaare how is your hunting going??

Barb, it's been trying. I've got a pile of mature bucks on camera in the dark, very little daylight activity or signs of rutting yet even. I've also been partnered 1/2 the days I have to hunt with my oldest son while his mom is at work.Having a 5 yr old along on his school days makes getting into bow range tough. Have had some opportunities but none on something I want to put my tag on. Haven't even killed my doe yet.

Very nice buck Kaare !! Then again i don't think you have any bad ones up there.

Awesome MASS! got any pics of his sheds? got to love the ones you have a history with

Here's 2 sets. The older looking set is actually more recent except I never found them and stumbled on them last spring after they'd been on the ground for 2 yrs. I never found either of his last sets...big woods, lots of places to shed them.

Here he is after the season in 07 on a pile of bales I tossed out to help them with winter.

Last yr on a scrape.

He's for sure 8 1/2 more likely 9 1/2 and fantastic for his age, score or not!

Thanks for sharing, that is a Monarch for sure. Outstanding

Wow an 8 or 9 year old buck?? What a stud!

This stud can qualify for social security and he is doin it with style
