Well SW you may get your chance.

I've watched this buck for three years now. He leaves for a bit during the rut to follow the does. I got a scare on the drive into work about two weeks ago. I saw a road kill buck near work. I didn't get a good enough look to see if it was the cemetery buck. Later that day a coworker said that he hadn't see the cemetery buck fo a couple of weeks. When I went back at lunch to check if the glimpse I had seen was him, the buck was gone. This worried me even more thinking that a buck like the cemetery buck would last long at the side of the road. Luckily a UPS driver had snapped a photo and eased my nervousness.

Here's a thread about him the year he was injured and had the split beam.

Here he is in september of this year. My favorite cape is the "inbetween" short hair cape after the summer red is gone and before the winter coat has filled in. He looks great here but he healed so not split beam.

I have some great pictures of this buck in velvet I will have to upload.

I have obviously been hunting in the wrong places, never seen a buck that looks half as good as him!

[swbuckmaster]

He did go looking for love this year outside his little paradise. For the life of me I don't know how he can cross all those roads and return unscathed.

So who has this years sheds? And some live pics after he made it back? Come on folks.

[skysthelimit]

I have pics of him before the rut in velvet and hard horned. I know he wasn’t in there during the rut because I drove through a few times. I never stopped back by after the rut to see if he went back. I’m anxious to see some pics after the rut as well. I did notice that the cemetery put up signs this year that said "no shed hunting".

[swbuckmaster]

he made it back and shed. I saw him before he shed and have seen him since. It will be cool to see how big he gets this year.
I think my call next year will be shaking a bag of chips .

LOL swbuckmaster. I have seen people feed that buck doritos(poor buck diet). As faw as the sheds go I haven't seen them but the guy with last years set met up with the guy with this years set at the expo. Last year he was a 218" buck this year he would have been around 206-209 but he broke off a cheater on one side and about 4 inches of antler on the other. I'm interested to see him next year too.

Brett, my sister took these pics of him just before he shed, and I took this pic shortly after he shed. I'd bet the sheds never get posted.
