Okay, to make things clear, I am talking about a trail cam picture of a deer
Not having access to any private land, I am one of the many confined the (rather small) public land tracts around the central part of the state.
Call it beginner's luck, but I hung two trail cameras in my public spot for over four months this past year and I didn't lose either camera. I'm still learning and came up almost skunked for buck pictures until late October when I discovered a good funnel. I got lots of pictures of bucks, but mostly smaller ones. There was a nice four point; only four because he had already lost his right antler by late October (probably sparing). I had some pictures of this deer during the day, but the picture below is the clearest (but this isn't the buck I'm asking about; continued below...).
Late in the season I got this picture of a very nice 10 point. He is a huge bodied deer. His brow tines are short but he has very long G3's. Unfortunately, this is the only picture I have of the bad boy. I think I saw him tending two does about Nov. 9th, but they were running away from me at the time.
I have only been hunting whitetails for three years, so I'm asking the collective expertise on IW for an opinion on how big you think this deer might be?
