We think this guy is making his first appearance this year, or he somehow magically morphed from a way smaller buck from last year. We have had two good years of rain (until the last few weeks of 100 plus temps). This is the fourth year on the lease and we haven't had anything close that we can recall. Any age and size guesstimates from the pros out there? The ole man is itching to get your thoughts. The dates are not 100% accurate but pretty close. My dad has named him "Wide Glide Clyde" haha This is about 2 weeks prior. Thanks, Houghtown

That dude is going to be 25 + inches wide. That's a rare main frame 8 that has a chance to hit 150+. With the non-typical points, he should get there.

I tell you what, If you pass on him and he jumps my fence I'll take a closer look and get the details for you!

I Feed Indian Corn. The deer love it and all the colors make them stay at the feeder longer.

He will be hard to pass no doubt. We have hunters on three sides of us, so if he makes it through this season it'll be a miracle. Luckily the Ole man and I like to bow hunt. We get out there a month before most of them. I'll post pics after he sheds his velvet.

There is no way I could pass on that deer, especially in your situation with hunters on three sides. That said, I believe he is a young deer.

Don't let it happen to you! I had a nice 4 year old I was watching and let him walk 4 times in 2 weeks, then on Thanksgiving day I got a call from my neighbor saying "Hey, Dad got "big boy". I told him to let him walk but you know Dad." One of the other guys told me the story and said that deer had just cleared my fence when he heard boom, boom and boom. He said he thought about calling me to make sure nobody was hurt on my place since the deer was so close to the fence. I'm glad those guys are gone now.
Sometimes it's hard being me! But somebody has to do it.
