Default 3 Bucks in the Making

Here are 3 bucks captured at the same spot, same trail, and same day. I attached one pic of each and then a zoom of each buck.

Which buck do you think has the greatest potential at this point?

I'll try and keep you posted on their growth if they keep coming. Hopefully their great grandfather will come by soon

Thanks.

It is hard to tell as they have not grown a whole lot yet. i can't see any of them beeing 160+" bucks but who knows they may surprise us. i think velvet is really deceiving and once it comes off it sure shrinks them. Great pictures.
If you want some good close ups try to get them to stop and have the camera closer. i have heard salt blocks is a good way to get nice close ups and lots of them. Anyother thing I do on trails is to put a treebranch over the trail and this gets them to stop before they walk over it or slows them down.

looks like no shooters for this year (for me anyway), but i think #2 has the most potential to be in 2 more years. itll be cool to watch him grow. keep us posted please.

#3 is a really nice symmetrical, but I like the split brow and the width of #2
