Who likes cactus bucks?

Post by ridgetop » Sun Jul 15, 2012 4:36 pm

Got this off my trail cam yesterday. Not sure I'd shoot it if given the chance but I do think he's pretty cool looking. What do you think?

Great pic Ridge, love it. Would I shoot it? I doubt it, especially knowing what else you showed us already. :)

My friend, You have no idea what's yet to come. All the research and scouting is starting to pay off and who would have guessed with such a dry year. So much for that theory. This is going to be one heck of a year.

Wow Ridge, your amazing! Not sure I've ever seen someone that scouts as well as you do. Your getting me excited though.

I know this is a little off subject but it was very frustrating scouting huge bucks in July and Aug. on the Pine Valley and Zion units, only to have them move 30-50 miles overnight in early Oct. and have no idea where they were during the rifle season.
The bucks up here stay put until early Nov.

Man, he's a pretty crazy looking buck. I doubt I'd shoot him as well, but it's a great pic!

Now that is a wild looking cactus buck.

Never been a big fan of cactus bucks. He's definately got his own look going, but I would have to let him go.

I'd have to second dahlmer.
Is it just me... that buck doesn't look like it has a very big body?
