An Example of a Fully Mature Buck

[sampotter]

My Dad snapped these pictures from the road on 11/13/12 at 11 am. All I could say was Wow! This buck would look big in Illinois. His neck is thicker than his hindquarters. This is what a fully mature buck looks like folks.

Yep, thats what one looks like in November. Hes a bruiser for sure!

Probably his one and only daylight appearance of the year during peak rut in mid November
