Default Drop Tine Buck

Went and checked the big bush cams this afternoon. Got a pic of this guy on a mock scrape. Lot of oilfeild activity nearby, they just moved a rig in 800 yds away. Going to be tough sitting while you can hear the floor motor whining

He looks like a typical 5x4 frame with a 4th little drop tine coming off the tip of left side.

Take a shot on the score if you want.

Not a huge frame, but great buck! With all the junk he might go 170

Bucks like these don't matter in score, it's all about the character!!! Won't see another one like him.

Biggin'.

Hey, did you notice the design of the fur that goes over his eyes like eyebrows? Makes him look evil.

Let's hope the rig crew doesn't spot him.

Yeah something is fishy. There's no big bucks in alberta! Plus steve would much rather photoshop than be out in the field chasing rutting bucks.
