This buck was killed 3 weeks later on the same 2700 acre tract of stateland.  Idk, maybe these two locked up? We'll never know I guess...

 

@2012_taco this anywhere near you?  Looks like that sticker buck you were chasing

I've had my hands on 5 local Steuben County bucks in the past 15 yrs that have grosses scored from 183-191" and several more that have broken the 170 mark. However, even here  in one of the state's more renowned "big buck areas" our age structure sucks...for both bucks and does any more. Most of the local processors still look they're running a baby buck nursery after the first week of gun season!

You've got more potential for bone than we do by a lot. It's very rare here to get them past 4.5 even on managed property and luck. Dont have the numbers or sq mile to help either. Just is what it is.
