Yes? No?

All much better than anything I've seen this year. Cool pics and thanks for sharing, either you were close or just a better photographer than me - I seem to specialize in not quite focused pics.

 

[highmountian]

Yes with bow and NO with riffle!

 

[Brandenbowhunter]

Can't see...from those pics...need some land marks to judge him off of!

 

[fowladdict]

I would have a hard time passing that buck with the tag that I have.

 

[elk_hunter]

Healthy bucks for sure! I'd shoot!

 

[RJH]

He is in the oven and I am making gravy while sipping my merlot. Still a nice buck.

 

[DavidKeenan]

Moments like this have me asking myself "What would Colorado Buck Do?"

I think he may be able to decrease arm length just a bit.

 

[noharleyyet]

Will make a fine 10 point.


Safety off....

 

[sneakem]

sure does look like the same buck previous year... pretty deer, neat to see what they develop from year to year.

THat's last years picture right? You're teasing us. He's already at the taxidermists and you're going to flash him out and say "Ha Ha ...fooled all of you!" Right?

 

[rhomas]

Compared to the whitetails that I hunt down here, I'd have to say BBD!!!!

 

[grizzly5028]

Id be more than excited to take a buck like that!

 

[zfountaine55]

yes without a doubt!

 

[Devil Diver Down]

Oak-
Since I didn't draw AZ again, I'd be happy to discuss that buck's merit as a "shooter" on our way up to put a stalk on him.

I would release an arrow on him, without a doubt. Hell, I'd release on his little buddy who was trailing him in your second round of pix. If it's for a rifle hunt, I'd like to see him minus the bulk of velvet, but I think he's still a shooter. Even in Colorado.

 

[recon6036]

Yep, I'd shoot him!

 

[Summitthunting]

Yes with bow, muzzy, rifle or truck.

 

[Duck-Slayer]

I'll shoot one.... but with rifle no....

[Sixpointbull]

Even though he is smaller than the original pic makes it look, I would not hesitate. Good buck.

I had a tag for Lincoln, Montana that is, for a Mulie once. I hunted exactly 6 hrs in that Unit for the entire year and saw one buck, a fork horn. I passed on him, didn't bother me and he was too young. This guy however....is DONE! Crash...what was that? The sound of that guy hitting the ground right after my perfect broadside shot! BAM! I wouldn't even hesitate on that fellar for sure.

That deer is a stud! Where is our buddy who lives with his parents and tells us what bears to shoot and not to shoot. He would probably say growth will stop and its just another freak 2 year old that "needs to mature". Go get em Oak!!
