10 Pointer's Transformation

[sampotter]

Where I come from this buck is officially labeled a "Christer" ; because when you see him that is one of the words that may come out of your mouth. I had him last year at 30 yards on the very last day of bow season. I have passed on more than a few 3 year olds over the past years but this is the first one that I've seen make it into the next season. Am I ever excited by what I see now. Hopefully he is around as much as he was last season. He looks to be solid 150s. I don't care much about net score but he won't have many deductions either, unless he goes and breaks tines off like last year. It would be interesting to see what he would look like as a 5 or 6 year old but rest assured it won't be because I let him walk...

Nice video Sampotter...yeah it would be interesting to see what he looks like in a few years. Great looking Buck you got there, best of luck in making it all happen!

[Cabin Fever]

He is one healthy looking buck!! He looks like he's ready to kick some ass this fall!

Great video Sam, good luck!

[Deerthug]

WOW! Nice buck!

[growalot]

Great videos and buck...thanks for the comparison..Wow what a change not just in head gear but body shape and size....nice!

[WNYBuckHunter]

That buck is a flipping TANK! Holy smokes, good luck with him!

[WNY Bowhunter]

I'd guess him at upper 140-150ish. It's awesome to see what a buck can do from 3.5 to 4.5. He's a stud right now...dang, he'd be a monster next year!!! That is, if he gets by you this fall. Good luck!!!

Thanks for all of the good luck wishes. I'd be out of my mind to pass this deer now. If I had control of 1000 acres maybe I could justify it but with as many brown-its-downers it'd be hard to hope he'd survive that long. A different buck could intercept my arrow in the meantime but for now this guy stands all alone in my thoughts...

really nice vid

It looks like he has lost a little weight in his body since last year and it all went to his antlers.

can't tell, but hope he don't have a double white throat patch

[sampotter]

No double throat patch- what effect would that have?

[oneidacountyhunter]

Huge buck. Rack, neck, and body. Good luck.

sam,

no ill effect, seen a picture of a 143" 10point, that came from up your way 2 nights ago

reel nice buck, had a double throat patch

[sampotter]

We must know eachother? This 10 is actually quite a ways from where I live. I do like a double patch though.
