    180 class 10

    Here's a buck we call the Ghost. He didn't get his name because he's hard to find. He's a local boy and shows up regularly. He got his name from a guy that wanted to kill him as a big 2 1/2 yo. He showed me the pic of the deer he wanted to get approved. I knew the deer from TC pics as a WIDE young 10. He said he called him the Yellow Horn Ghost. I told him he was wasting his time. The deer was a baby. Watching the buck, I predicted that he'd be the biggest typical 10 ever killed on the Junco when he grew up. This last year, as a 4 1/2 yo, he was in the low to mid 80's, typical. He's a protein hound. He showed signs of growing a 5 on the right and possible drop on the left. I hope he stays a typical 10. As a typical 10, he's a SPECIAL deer. If he grows the other stuff, he'll score more, but he'll just be a big deer.

    Oh, you expected me to post pics of him with horns? They won't let me. They're afraid someone might find out that there's big deer on the Junco. LOL

                      You boys need to learn to score better. His beams are 1 inch. that's 2. Spread of 4. That's 6. You get 4 mass measurements per side. That's 16 each. I get 38 down. No up yet. So he'll score 38 easy. LOL

                          When you look at these deer on pics and in person, you get to learn their face and characteristics like you would a human. This is his feeder. He eats from that left spout 90% of the time. He has a notch on his right ear. Another on his left. If you look on his right ear, you can see the notch. I think they're going to say he's mature this year, if he comes back at least as strong as this past season. I think he'll be 5 1/2 from my history with him, but an argument could be made for 6 1/2 this coming season, though I think it's weak. LOL If he's killed this year, I think it'll be with a bow.

                          We were worried about the hog hunters killing him before he lost his horns. I was tickled to find the shed, because the odds of them killing him with one horn is low. Once he showed in the above pics, we knew he at least survived the worst part of the year and should have a good chance to be around this next season.

                              Why would hog hunter kill him out of season?
