Heck the deer are gonna have to dig to get to my greenfields. 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!”

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.

Yea I would have dusted his ass too. 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 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 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.

I was told that snow contained nitrogen and was really good for greenfields ...that might be an old wise tale though . Not sure how snow and rain could be any different in composition. Air is 80% nitrogen though.

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?
