I got a picture of this buck tonight. It was taken from about 150 - 200 yds away. I glassed it with a pair of binnoculars and the brow tines look to be around 10" long. I saw a big one around here 2 years ago that had a brow tines 12-14".

I have seen a really nice buck here the last two years. It is not any wider than this, but it is alot taller. I am thinking this guy is going to grow some more ;) This deer is only 1/8 mile from my house. I need to get my cudde-back out for some pictures.

Mike
I bet your neighbor went looking and spooked him out of the area. Next time I wouldn't say a word to anybody that you can't trust.

I would venture to believe this is true. I stopped by the house next to the property and spoke with wife of the owner. I told her that I had saw a big buck out and that I would like permission to put my camera out there. Then she told me her husband is a big deer hunter :eek:

Probably what happened :(
