    Joe, Thanks for the info. When I did receive the picture I thought it was a nice deer but not in the 120 class. My deer has real nice tine length 11-12" the other deer seems to be missing that and the right side is smaller. So my deer is a main frame 8 pt missing a brow tine? Good to know and thats what I like about this forum, we have many informative people on board to help out. Thanks again Joe bag a "big one Saturday!" Burt

    My nephew had the big boy locked up with two doe this Sat, 10 am they entered a field and bedded in it all day, the buck never left their side. I think it is happening right now and will continue thru next week. I can remember years ago gun hunting the rut and shooting at a nice buck and missing, he didn't run away and came right back on that does trail giving me a second shot.......I didn't miss! There will be some wild stories to tell!

    Sorry guys not to put the kabosh on things but you better have some other nice things for her to open after that laptop. I'm not saying that a laptop isn't a great gift. It will get old real quick opening up accessories to the laptop. Remember Men are from mars and women from venus! Get my drift?

    Gang, My property has NYSEG lines that run through the property. They really are no big deal. Most of the line is above the corn field and through a little bit of woods. I was trying to contact NYSEG so they don't spray to kill the trees and vegetation under the ROW through the woods. I would like them to use mechanical means to do this. Anyone know what my rights may be. I'm sure I can contact my lawyer and he would know but I thought I'd try here first being there are many landowners on the board. Thanks, Burt

    Got to love those long tines! Nice buck.

    I had a big one come in and his antlers were dark brown from base to tip. Also have seen a big racked buck in the area with bone white antlers. Solon's explaination seems right.

    They push the deer coming and going and this time of year the deer will get up and mill about around noon after they have bedded for a while. Opening weekend it's the guys pushing the deer, they will settle into normal patterns later in the season when all is quiet.

    I don't think that this is the cause for this buck but Geno's buck could of had a burrowing bug get into the antler when in velvet and cause the defect. I've seen this in the past.

    Everybody is in the woods pushing deer. Stay all day, High alert times are first light, 10 am, noon, 2 pm and last hour of light. Hear shots face in that direction and look for fleeing deer. Bring some food and beverage, hopefully you'll be back at camp with your deer by 9am.

    I tried to compare it to mine and it looks close. My deer has 11" tines. He also gets both browtines included. Regardless it is still a huge six point over 100 pts.

    Here is the picture of the big six taken this year. It was shot in Cayuga city and green scored 117.

    I do the same exact thing Eddie. No problem getting to that ladder. I had the kid get a HSS vest and pushed him towards using ladder stands.

    Good thing to do, I would of done the same. Hunting 35 years now and can't say I have ever been on either side of the fence.

    Thanks-yes that's a cool rack. His right side is also bladed out so it's about 5 " wide where all the points meet.

    Sorry to hear that Doc.
  24. First-light
    Thanks for the info NYantler. Here is a picture of mine, the deer in the middle. It does have 7pts but the scorer said because the other browtine is missing it gets scored as a 6pt. Official score was 111. I remember the spread being around 22". I'll work on getting pictures of the other deer, it was killed this year. My deer was killed back in 91. Thanks, Burt
