Double Main Beam

Recommended Posts

I am not sure if I posted this in January or not but I took "the shot" with my camera instead of my bow because when I first saw this buck, he was directly in line with the setting sun and did not look very big. He went behind some trees and then popped out and I snapped these photos at 104 yards. I looked at the photo after I took it on the playback and realized he was a nice 4x4 and had a double main beam. He did not stand there long enough to knock an arrow, much less get a shot off. How wide do you think he is? I was guessing 25-26" possibly but my friends think he's wider. I don't see it but who knows. I will be going back to this area in January in hopes to find him with some ladies.

I would have put an arrow on him first, then measure how wide it is later :) Great buck!

Haha ya, I messed that part up 😂

I think you posted a pic, it looks familiar... but, either way you need to kill that buck . By ear width if he is big bodied, I’d give him to 28” outside spread ez.  You need to kill him and then ground check him!  Good luck and keep us posted.

Make deer ears vary pretty good, especially an older deer vs. A middle aged buck.  I just severely misjudged a buck that I thought was atleast 22" wide, turns out he was 18" wide and was still slightly outside is ears on most pics.  Ill say that buck is 24-26" wide.
