Title: Assorted buck pics

Been getting pics of some decent bucks behind the house. I know one is back from last year for sure. But we'll get to him in a little bit..

First up is a nice yearling 7 point who looks to have potential if he can avoid getting hit by a car:

Next up is a goofy little spike:

Next is what looks to be a solid 3 year old 7 point. He looks like he could become something with a few more years, but he'll certainly be hard to pass up. We'll see what he looks like after the velvet comes off. Tine length, spread and mass all look good. Lets just see if he can keep the mass after shedding velvet. This was the first and last time I got pics of him:

And now finally we get to the pinnacle of my trail cam pics so far this summer...

A few months ago I got this pic and saw what looked to be the big wide forkhorn I passed up a few times last year:

Then I went just about a month and a half without him showing his face again... til I got these pics... it was him.... or so I thought...

At first I was kind of upset that he wasn't the big wide fork he was the year before, but then a few days later guess who made a guest appearance? Yup. The Wide Forkhorn.

Anyone care to throw an age out there on this buck? I know he's atleast a 3.5 year old. He has a body like a horse, a sagging belly and muscular brisket, but long legs. I can't quite put an age on him. Anyone ever seen a whitetail forkhorn this wide before? Well, I know these are the breeder bucks in PA but thats another story. ;)

I just know that I wouldn't be ashamed to say I shot a 4 or 5 point if it were one of those 2 bucks! I'm saying 3.5 on the forkhorn.

Joe I would guess he is 3 1/2 to 4 1/2. I think I see some of the wide 8's genes at work in some of those pics.

That is exactly what I said Chuck. betcha he related to the wide 8. The rack has many traits of the wide 8.
I would be tickled to ventilate that big boy.

Looks like a little back sway, but still a thin nose. No more than 3.5. Now if only we could get him to have a drop or twist or knot or some other nontypical kind of trash, your dad would be tearing the woods up come Oct.

Nice pics of some nice bucks.

You sure know how to grow 'em wide down state.

There is just about no pressure on these bucks at all and just about NO land at all to hunt here where we live. So they get BIG. We are fortunate ;) .

Very nice set up y'all have got. Now if we could keep the others out until y'all bag one or two of the big ones.

Beaglepen - August 18, 2010 01:30 PM (GMT)
And in Sullivan County that buck would theoretically be immortal. :rofl:

That may be the biggest 4 point i've ever seen.Yal got some wide genetics down there. Would not be ashamed of taking that 7 point at all.Defentily got some of the wide 8's genetics.
