blackradio Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 This will be my third hunting season, and second bow season. Took my first deer ever last year, a small doe with a bow, and took a great 9pt and adult doe with shotgun. I am very lucky I am able to hunt the spot I do. It's a 200 acre piece of land with huge fields, great cover and the deer just seem to love it. There is 1000's of acres of fields and cornfields all around and only a few farmhouses on the road. My coworker let's me hunt there and we've been getting some awesome buck and a lot of bears. I spent most of my time last year in a stand I put up in between a top field and a lower field, next to a stream bed and covered with prickers, cedars and oak trees. I saw a bunch of deer there last year and shot 2 so I thought it was a no brainer to hunt that stand early this season. I have gotten a ton of deer pictures there, a nice bear pic, and this awesome buck. you can make out the drop tine on his left side and we just got a picture of him last week where you can see the drop tine on his other side. Very symmetrical 10 pt with drop tines, the first drop tine we've heard of around. Really excited to hunt him. Also got a nice bear I'm going to hunt this stand in the morning, hoping to get lucky. But after tomorrow I think it's smart to stay out of there and hunt different stands or other places I have access to, so I don't stink it up and hopefully drop tine will feel comfortable in the thick prickers as November rolls around. Good luck fellas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
First-light Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 That buck looks huge, really huge. What are his browtines like, can't see from the picks. Good luck and stay calm! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackradio Posted October 1, 2012 Author Share Posted October 1, 2012 I'm not good at telling length but his g2's and g3's seem long..like 8" maybe? Hard to tell brow tine length too. But he's a nice symmetrical 8 with 2 drop tines. Only 1 way to find out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackradio Posted October 3, 2012 Author Share Posted October 3, 2012 went out with my hunting partner yesterday for an afternoon sit. We sat about 400 yards away from eachother on the same ridge where we have the other pics of drop tine. On the way to the stand he checked his cam and got 2 more pics of him. Amazing buck. Sorry for the shit quality (pic off computer screen) There's a bunch of other good bucks but this is my #2 although this is the only shot we have of him and it was in mid July. He should be a beast now. I have my work cut out for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
