It doesn’t score high





The pictures taken from game cameras are misleading on some occasions.  This buck is certainly a nice buck, he is mature, has a certain mass, long points but he is only an 8 pointer.  Furthermore, when this picture was taken and that we had the opportunity to harvest him, 12 months passed by.  I had the chance to see him while scouting the year after and I thought that he was a bit bigger.  The morning after, a client of mine saw and took this deer… 145 BC.  From this living buck’s picture, the place were I saw him and the place where he was shot, there’s wasn’t more than 200 meters.  This goes to show that certain bucks are not great travelers as we might expect.  Good day.
