My buck survived the winter!

My buck survived the winter!
Last year, 2 days after I tagged my buck I was trying to fill my doe tag when a really nice buck came out. I was hoping he survived the winter. I put out some trail cams and have been catching a lot of photos of him. He appears to be having some amazing bone growth compared to the rest of the bucks I have got on camera this year. I think he is going to be a brute, concidering he has over 2 months of growing to go. Here he is.

I call him mine because I let him go last season. I could have bought a out of state deer tag, we can buy a nonresident tag for a extra tag here, and easily killed him. I watched him several times thru my crosshairs, last season. He is only alive today because I let him live, so yeah, I call him my buck. Besides "flags", I can call him anything I want. Whats it to you????

Fritz seems a little sensitive about this buck. Thought you were over that sensitive nature of yours... If you're lonely in that secret spot I'll come along to keep you company. Nice looking buck. Looks like he's gonna have some good mass too. Will this be a rifle or archery hunt? If he's on that much of a pattern should be "easy" to get him with the bow.

Not sensitive at all, Jake. I do the same thing every year, I find a decent buck, concentrate my efforts on that particular buck and I, 90% of the time, will get that deer. Back to your question though, we can use either weapon here in Idaho, as long as you have a archery permit. I will probably hunt him the first couple of weeks with my bow. I am enjoying just watching him grow, right now, and he has a lot of time to grow yet.
