2 for next year

[growalot]

Seeing the Dr said it was OK I took a walk to the cams...OK looks are deceiving because the snow was just below my knees...I'm really tired...22ins deep now...some I think was a massive drifting...but the canvas barn was sagging....The deer had been move through and digging turnips...these two will have a bit of growing to do .....

PS...Is it me or does that 2nd spike look like a very muscular deer for a young one?

Lions like the same deer to me

Very similar racks but you can see the first deer looking back in the second pic.

Very nice body size on the second guy for a 1.5 yr old buck

I thought the same at first Paula...then realized that in the first pic....there are no prints in the snow in front of the deer....

Bucks look in fine shape.

 

Lucky your neighbors didn't shoot them.

Your rt...hey remember the 12 I missed then had to watch 20+mins before grunting to try and get him back..just to watch him walk away? Well another neighbor shot a buck and a pic was sent...man at first I thought it was him ...couldn't tell from cell pic..but got info and it was an 8pt...finally light came on and today I figured out how to post the pic...must be 12's son or brother because this 8 looks just like him but smaller...way smaller body too...hope the 12 made it

People hang their deer is such odd places. That garage, or I think it is, is so full of crap all over the place. Nice deer for sure.

Nice deer! Looks a little like your avatar pic..

 

Been hard on the heels of a big one all season. Got a nice surprise at 4:45pm. with an encounter with, who we call, Tall Tine Six.

Hot on the heels of 2- 7 month old doe. I was sure that buck was going to be shot, as he  appeared several times,  out of range during bow season.  Somehow made it through, and should be a dandy of a buck for next season.

 

I so needed a lift of spirits for the end of season. Above answered my prayer!
