Finally found him.....

Been running a cam in the yard for a little over a month now. I got several decent deer to show up BUT not the one! The one I had coming in every night that I really wanted to kill still hasn't made his return. I think I know who most of these deer are but I had my mind set on one particular deer. I went out glassing the other night with my 4 yr old and he always seems to be my good luck charm. Well the other night didn't fail his reputation.... we saw all 3 of the deer I've got on trail camera and "The One". Last year I guessed he would be low 50's but this year I would say he's solid 70's. My problem is he is living on the neighbors property and they are trophy hunters as well. I just need him to get a little pressure and come back home to the new and improved buffet I planted. Wish I could get some pictures of him to see just how big he is... glassing at 300+ yards I guessed 170's by the time he's done growing.

This years 3:




The big guy last year:



Another that I'm still trying to get pics of, just set cams a couple weeks ago to see if I can relocate.

Here's a different angle of both: only reason I thought the drop was 40's was bc he's got no mass. Saw him from the stand several times last year and he looks a lot better on camera than in person IMO. (still would of killed him)

I'm hoping bud! Letting the cams soak for awhile now, time to lay low on pressure.
