no doubt they are differnet bucks.

Trump just won re-election... MAGA!

When I approach, a first stay about 10 yards away and watch the deer's chest for a while to see if it is still taking a breath or not. Then as extra test, approach from behind and touch the eye with a long branch to make extra certain it has expired.

Make sure to paper tune your bow before working on grouping and sighting in a various yardages.

Very cool. Congrats!!!

At first I thought I was looking at same deer, but this morning I looked again and now I think the deer in the middle picture has antlers that look wider than the deer in the 1st and 3rd picture. So I had to post the get other thoughts. Now it looks like I have 2 target bucks!

These are night photos, a little dark, buck I enlarged and it seems that this is two different bucks. What do you think?

Nice big one in there Joe. Good luck Monday.

Lucky you Ringtail. I'm at work sitting at my desk reading about you out in the woods bow hunting, crisp 47 degree morning with the deer moving. I can't wait.

Much congrats on a great buck!

That 9 pointer is a nice one. Good luck.

Ok... I'll throw in a guess.... Chester? And really nice looking buck. Good luck.

Same as "Hammer4reel", just have the most enjoyable time being out there and in the woods. The "icing on the cake" would be to take a 10 point. I have 2 8's on the wall now and to take a 10 off public land would be thrilling.

Yup, that is a real nice looking 8.

I'll be 61 in November and still hunt with my 2005 Diamond Victory compound set ay 60lbs. It's important to keep strengthening the upper back and shoulder muscles so that drawing the bow doesn't become an issue while practicing and hunting. I work with weights and bands every morning before heading off to work. Doesn't have to be real heavy weights. I use 15lb and 25 lb doing various exercises to keep those muscle tuned.
