Wow those are some fine bases on what appear to be younger buck...wish I had the minerals in your soils...nice pics...home brew cam?

It's a Browning Strike Force cam and good (lucky) lighting. Not sure how old he is. Probably have a history of photos of him over the last couple years, but will have to wait for his rack to take shape.

That would be very cool indeed if he turned into a buck like that! What do you think that buck scored hard-horn? Did you get any trailcam photos of him then? What do you figure his base circumference was hard-horn? And how in the heck does a buck like that make it through the hunting season? Must have a sanctuary.

I'm guessing mid-140's gross. I pulled cams in mid-Septemeber to move them other places so I never got any hard horned pics last fall. I'd say his bases are 4.5-5". Here he is in January. I've been watching him since he was a yearling 8-pt back in 2012. He seems to have a very small home range with a good amount of hunting pressure all around so he must have a nice little spot to crawl into during gun season.
