Just killed one last year.
You can fool some of the bucks, all of the time, and fool all of the bucks, some of the time, however you certainly can't fool all of the bucks, all of the time.

Bow only, two bucks ever, both over 125, both on the wall. More to come.
If it bleeds, we can kill it . . . .

4 total, 3 since joining the Hunting Beast.

This will be skewed to hunters in good areas obviously.

As JM stated the Northeast seems to lack, on average, 20-30" on +2.5 year old deer.

So to answer your question; that is a big NEGATIVE!
This years deer was guessed @ 3.5 years and only scored 105"...

I killed 2 over 125" (biggest 142") and a few just missing that mark with bow on public land.

Never hunted managed private which can up the odds dramatically.

3 for sure, 2 others that are pushing 125", if they aren't over that. Never had those two scored so I really can't say for sure
