They're gonna get hungry eventually with all the food covered over. I bet they move hard right after it melts off.

Impressive deer right there.

Thanks man! He’s got another good sticker point off the back of that same G2 that you can’t see…. making him a 12 point. I really don’t think he’s that old. He was running with another nice 8 point that I would have easily called 3 or 4 years old at the most and they didn’t look that much different other than just the rack. I haven’t weighed him but I’d say he’s in the 170-190 range. My first thoughts was that he wasn’t old enough then I thought about it again and said to myself….“Horsechit!”

Yea I would have dusted his ass too.

I used somewhat of a throw and mow on a small lease this year. I have tons of pics of deer, but not one single nice racked buck. I do have one old deer I am wanting to shoot. Unique rack.

I think I just had a brain spasm or something. It didn’t take very long to reconsider my thinking after I looked at him a second time.



I haven’t got much of squat on camera this year so far…..not even a racked buck. It's been the worst year for deer numbers that I can remember. These bucks just showed up out of nowhere. Deer were really moving this afternoon I believe.

Did you gut shoot him just to make things interesting?

Not sure how snow and rain could be any different in composition. Air is 80% nitrogen though.

Heck no!....I don't want any of the ones I shoot to get interesting.

Congrats, Harold on a fine buck. Behind the house?

Congrats! Did you game check him? Lol

Thanks Blum!....Yeah, killed him in the back left corner of the test field in this thread.




Thanks lefthorn!.....Sure did. He is game check certified. Add 1 to Macon Co.

I snapped a couple more pics to show the character on his tines. I thought he was a cool looking deer…I’m just happy to see a good one like this again. I didn’t even have a shooter on camera last season, much less kill one….. and chit was looking real ugly to start out this season again.

Great buck CNC! Very cool character to his antlers and they look to have really good mass too.

When do the deer usually rut in your part of Macon county?

Thanks!.. ..The peak activity around here is usually Jan 20-25.

Oh wow! Those side views really show off the character! Man what a buck

Make a really cool Euro mount.

Let me guess, got up to get another cup of coffee, still in pajama's and house shoes, look out the window and there he is. Raise the window and BOOOOM! LOL

that' sounds like a great hunt
