Got pics of a nice buck out of velvet making a rub

Unread postby BigHills BuckHunter » Wed Aug 31, 2011 7:54 am

I picked up my card today from my trail camera before the rain and got quite a surprise. A nice buck out of velvet making a rub. Got 5 other bucks still in velvet.

Also...I noticed that several bucks were using this tree to rub on even though they were still in velvet which is very interesting.

Any score guesses or age? Thanks

Nice buck I'd say 120 gross.
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.
