Bucks for next year

[soil]

This is the roster who survived this past season.


I think this guy is 3 1/2

These next two were always together in the field in front of my house last year. Both pretty wide, short brow 8 pointers last year. I call them thing1 and thing2 from the dr Seuss book.

Thing1 3 1/2 year old

Thing2 3 1/2 year old. He shed his right side this past week but all the others are still holding as of this morning.

This 8 point i think is 4 1/2. He was about a half mile away during the summer and just showed up on the farm in late December. Hopefully he decides to stay here throughout the fall next season. He is similar to thing1 but with longer brows.

This buck I'm guessing is 4 1/2 as well but I'm not positive. I've only gotten 5 pics of him. He just showed up out of the blue last week. Once again, I hope he sticks around.

The first buck looks considerably older than 3.5 to me.

Good call Hoosier, I messed that up. The first two pics are not even the same buck. I meant to post a different pic.

This is the second pic I meant to post on the tuning fork buck

And this is the other buck. He surely is older. He showed up one night in February 2015 and one night in November.

The last buck from the first set could be 3.5 as opposed to 4.5. Late season pics are tough but his hocks are minimally stained for a 4.5 year old. Obviously that's not an end all characteristic, but it got my attention.

Should be a good year for you. Good luck shed hunting.
