That's a nice one b116757! I hope your boy gets a shot at him too.
T-Max, those are a couple of outstanding deer! I personally know of several 190+ deer that were shot that only had 1 eye.

My thoughts exactly. What piss poor luck for another buck to sneak a tine by your eyeguard and jab it out.

I'm amazed that part of the wall hasn't been broken off!

You are spot on. Look at this poor guy. I’ve had him on camera since June, had him in bow range twice. Unfortunately I can’t burn a tag on him and honestly he’s liked for months like this so I’m not sure what his fate is. I have a buddy bringing his son to shoot does in late ml but told him this buck is his main target

Post 255 above. Had some pics of him last year real late. Found both of his sheds this spring. One in my back yard and the another a mile North. I think that’s where he’s from and why he is normally here after dark. Last year he was around 165”. Really narrow, but super mass. Very chocolate antlers for around here.

5 minutes… My 4 antlered buck came out 5 minutes after legal light tonight… I was stuck in the blind as he was only 60 yards. Had to watch him in the waning light for 30 minutes hoping he would wander away. Ended up having to have the wife drive in and blow the field. Hope I didn’t screw it up for the season. 5 minutes…

What are your thoughts on this being the same buck? 1st picture is this year, pictures 2 and 3 are last year. Buck was considerably bigger last year if it is the same one. The flyer points on the G2s, the tall and relatively narrow rack make me think it is the same buck. However he lost some mass and his G4s from last year if it is the same buck.

Hard to see from these angles but the buck I killed this year had an inside flyer last year (bottom pic) and it became an outside flyer this year. He also had a sticker on his G2 last year that was gone this year but developed into a baby crab claw at the end of his main beam. Pretty cool to see their changes in character from one year to the next.

Kind of what I am feeling. Hopefully he makes it through the rest of the Winter and he rebounds next year. Last year I would have killed him and this year I would have passed him.

Nope, I'm saying not the same buck.

I wish I had the ability to tag bucks
. I always wonder when watching deer videos and guys say with "certainty" I have 3-5 years worth of pictures of this buck. I always doubt myself when looking at pictures and really don't feel very certain that I am looking at the same buck from year to year. Unless there is some other physical characteristic like a torn ear, missing a leg (I had one of those deer in the past) how do you really know you are looking at the same buck.

I'm not the guy that thinks I can tell a buck from 1 yr to the next, I'm actually pretty critical of my ability to do that and look for physical characteristics and routes combined before I get to thinking I might have the same buck. In this case I just think it's unlikely for a buck to go from a main frame 10 to a 8, and to loose so much mass at the same time.I wish I had the ability to tag bucks
If that's a scar on his left ear (our right) im thinking same buck
