He is a great looking 2 1/2 year old. Good luck keeping tabs with till 2011 season.
He is running with a 4 1/2 year old 8 pt that probably goes 150 net. I want a pic of him b/c he is a real dandy. Saw him in the bean field week ago Sunday...he was out there with this one and a six for over an hour at dusk. Hopefully I get a pic of the bigger deer before season opens here on Oct. 1.
Beautiful deer! He'll be a monster in 2 years, but he's one right now, I'd have no problem arrowing him!
Nice buck! I would like to see him in a year!
if it was me i would shoot him this year........but that;s me![]()

Have you ever seen a lion limber up before taking down a gazelle?
Goals for 2011
1. Kill a gobbler with my stick and string (Check)
2. Get my little brother his first ever buck
3. Out smart an old buck
4. Get a kill on tape. (Check)
5. Recover every deer I attempt to shoot.
Yep, tend to agree. He walks this year.
Don't cry because it's over, smile because you were there.
Nice buck and will be in a couple of years. If he walks by the right person he will get dropped
That is a really nice deer. I would probably take him this year, but it would pay off to wait. Good luck in 2011.
2011!!!!! Dude, you sound like the a politician plotting strategy! I don't look that far ahead. You got a nice deer there, I'd have to take the shot with a bow, might pass on the gun too, but still I can't see that far into the future!
"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it on to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free." - Ronald Reagan, March 30, 1961.
This is a 2.5 year old buck. That is why he has so little mass. Next year he will be hard to pass up. But the real pay off will be in 2 years. However, if he gets out of my honeyhole too much someone will pop him during gun season or with bow...I guarunttee it. Most deer in my area don't make it past this phase. However, a few that are taught once are twice learn how to be survivors and keep away from hunters.
But I don't blame anyone for taking him...he would make a good wallmount if you would have him.
