Interesting, Iv talked with folks around here that said the 10th this year was the most intense rut action they had seen in a couple of years!

Yes, that's why I know he is a 4yr old. I only had one pick of him this year though and it was a blurry one. He really put on the size and mass from last year. Easy to follow him the way his beams come around and almost touch.

His beams this year were 26.0" each, very deceiving the way they curve in. Main frame 10 with 4 kickers 3 scored. No ground shrinkage on this guy.

Ben, we are always in the woods no matter the moon or weather from the 5th-15th The pre-rut is what I want,. Chasing, searching, running scrapes which is what I like to hunt the most during this period and funnels or pinch points between bedding areas of the does. Staging areas are good to but there usually loaded up with scrapes.

When the actual breeding starts everything seems to slow way down, does are hiding anywhere they can, the big boys always have a doe locked down waiting for her to come in and won't let her move much. Only thing running around are the young bucks fun to watch them though. I'm not a fan of the actual rut!

That's awesome. I love seeing how some things change while some things stay the same with a bucks antlers from year to year. He really grew his frame from 2-3, then piled on the mass from 3-4.
Congrats again! He's a dandy.

[Bigriver]

What a cool buck, I call those no doubters. Nice!

[Longbowlogan]

Great buck Tracey, I love the mass and tight rack!

[Bernie B.]

My, my, my he's a good one!  Congratulations - love the mass on that guy!
