Habitat-Talks October/November 2019 trail cam contest.

Three year old stud that will be hard to pass. I guess I’ll have to make that decision when the time comes

I guess I don’t have to worry about making a decision to pass. Buddy of mine who hunts the neighboring property shot him Tuesday at about 5 pm. Anyone want to guess the score to see how your judging skills are?

162?
 
155
 
My first estimate from quickly looking at the trail cam pic was 155 as well. I was wrong. Not saying by how much yet but...

Anyone else want to give it a shot?
 
My guess is...cold. Man I love southern hunting! Didn't need a coat this afternoon. Cant really see enough to guess score but swag is maybe 150"
 
156
 
I think at 156 I judged him fairly liberally. His main beams look to be pretty long. They're a wildcard. His G4's tip frontward nicely and also are long. He's built to score well, minus the short brows. I'm interested to hear if I guessed to high!
 
I'll post the measurement rounded down to the nearest inch before I leave work this afternoon.
 
157"
 
When the big boys tickle antlers, they are not F’ing around.

No wonder they break antlers all the time. They look ticked off!
 
Wow.... fantastic fight sequence!! No wonder they are whipped by the end of the rut.
 
Which one did you shoot

I wish. Trail camera pics..
Worst part is I was headed to that stand today but the wind was wrong :(. Besides those two I got 9 other daytime buck pics. Not 9 different bucks. But a buck there 9 different times in daylight.
 
I switched this to October/ November contest. If everyone is like me, things are busy.

Wish Bueller would take over again. He was better at it than me. :)

Survivor stag:

He stayed well hidden til all the stags on the quota were shot. I have seen him a few times but I'm not allowed to take a stag here. I will scout better next year and try to take him in September.
