Nest season potential
A crop out photo of a couple of bucks who have made it through hunting season. I've seen four different big fellows on camera all with this kind of mass. Some on video but can't get it to upload to share.

What do you think of these two?

Very nice. It will be great to see them next year.

I think they are both 2.5-3 year olds, and will be special next year. They are special now, but will be high 130s into 140s.

They both look like yo have good mass for their age.

I think one needs to stand in front of you for 3-6 seconds.

I'd happily shoot either of those next season. That's wonderful that you have those to look forward to.

Great mass on those young bucks. You have some nice opportunities for the next couple of years.

I haven't seen an antlered buck on camera in two weeks. I think that they're done shedding here.

Bucks like these hold their antlers in MO until March. I've never seen so many and (to me) such nice bucks like these hanging around at this time of the year here. Really excited for autumn this year.
