Neck roasts for days!

Just try to think of what this deer has been through all these years. To make it to 7 1/2. .   Nice reading and following of this old boy. Let us know the outcome.

If he survives the next weekend's chaos...my friends farm currently has a bunch of standing corn which we be the best food source in his area. That will be my best chance if we get hit with cold and snow.

the first couple weeks into gun season and first week before if you have standing corn that's like gold for keeping deer alive if nobody pushes them out of it. i know of some that leave corn for deer and others that don't have room and dryer space and let the ears hang well past ready. latter situation is pretty messed if it's a farmer and the loss isn't something they want or accept but some folks do what they do their way.

it's kinda comical when you get a 215 lb dressed out buck and you pull 17lbs of neck roast of of it. it's not bad either! lol

I hope you get him with the gun. Would be so cool to have such a long history with a buck and then get him

Thanks. I may have a chance if he makes it through opening weekend with all the standing corn on the farm still. We'll see.

Semisneak form...ears back...would look bad ass!

For sure. I was originally thinking you could incorporate his sheds. But then I remembered you don't have any. Could do something with all the pics though

Nope. Didn't hear of anyone else killing him either so I'm hoping he's going to show up again.

Man that buck has some good instincts.

I really need to radio collar him and find out just where he holes up during gun season. It would be really interesting to know...

Hopefully you'll be standing over him in October.  Cool story. I chased a deer around for 3 years on our lease.  It was pretty neat to get pics of him every year.  Always wanted to know what happened  to him.

Should I get pics of him this coming summer/fall it'll be 8 yrs of history on cam...something that I'm sure I'll never repeat with another deer in NY.

I have to guess that that buck does not chase the ladies much during the rut and doesn’t move much in daylight during gun.  Hope you get a crack at him.

Wow 8 years.  That is incredible. He has a great hiding spot somewhere.  Prob right behind a neighbors house.  Lol
