Your Biggest 4 or 6 Pointers On Cam

Not sure. We find our share of 3pt sheds so I believe there is some sort of genetics effecting the herd.
No injuries were visible. The funny looking side had three the first year we found the sheds, only a long spike and brow the next year, and then what you see in the pic. He was going downhill steadily at this point and was no longer the resident stud.
Big reshuffle of the deck this year. Going to be fun.

On the piece of private I grew up hunting, 6s are pretty common. Here's some of the bigger ones over the years:
My dad killed this one several years ago. Not a giant rack but huge body
Never saw these funky ones in person
This guy never showed up during season. I would assume at one point he was more than a half racked 4 but I'm going to cheat for the purpose of being able to include him here lol
This one may have been a 7 but I never got a clear enough pic to see if he has a split at the front of that left beam
This guy haunted me. Planned for him all preseason. His rack never took off like I thought it would, and he broke off the front of his left beam, but he was just a cool deer. Hunted him the opening weekend of the season and saw him come in from the corn 30 mins before last light. He craaawwwled to me at a glacial pace and didn't get in range until it was too dark to see my pins on him. I had to sit in my saddle and listen to him walk directly underneath me before he headed past me. Never saw him again but did kill his buddy a few weeks later.
And last, but not least, one of the coolest and angriest deer I've ever seen on cam. He was on public and was killed last year before I ever got eyes on him.

In my WMU our antler restrictions require "3 up" and the fact I'd have to let this one pass is nuts.
Is that real life?!

Amazingly, he must have just gotten off a bed... and he stood right in front of my cam and groomed himself from top to bottom. I spend a LOT of time finding bedding areas and getting these kinda pix. Here's a nice 6, a different one, i had him broadside at 20 yards and passed. He since disappeared. I only get one buck tag so i am picky. Nothing worse than using it on a buck i am not satisfied with.

I just found this picture while searching for pictures of another two bucks. The 6 point on the right was a pretty good deer. Chased him around in 2016 and never got him. These were on the old lease I was on. I took a machete and chopped a secret access trail 300 yards across a 5 year old cutover to reach an isolated SMZ to find these guys.

I would hunt that deer like he stole something.
Hes Givin it another year. He was a six last year too. I recognized him as soon as he sent the pic. Definitely beefed up his mass and length some but I would pop him first chance. Unique deer and he's at least 4.5 judging by last year's pics in December. Crazy how scrawny they look in August. Hes gonna look like the hulk mid November
