Yuma Outdoorsman Report post Posted August 29, 2019 I have had this buck on camera for the last 3 or 4 seasons. Each year he gets a little taller and a little wider. I keep going back and forth, if I had the chance to shoot him, would I do it? I think this year, that will be a yes. Something about a big forkie just intrigues me. Would you guys shoot him? 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

eastvalleyjerry Report post Posted August 29, 2019 I would. I like the way big 2x2's look, especially with eye guards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
buglethemin Report post Posted August 29, 2019 Heck yeah. I shot a 29inch forkie years ago in the tabletop/vekol valley area and he’s awesome. Shoot him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

muledeerarea33? Report post Posted August 30, 2019 29” forkie..... yes I would shoot it in a heart beat! Cause my 29 inches could become a be 30”!! And a 30” forkie is cool AF! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flatlander Report post Posted August 30, 2019 For sure. But I would also shoot a 2.9” forkie. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yuma Outdoorsman Report post Posted August 30, 2019 14 hours ago, CatfishKev said: For me it would depend on what ive already gotten before. I haven't shot anything over 170" I'd guess but I do have a 27" 5x5, couple decent 4x4's, and some decent 3x3 and 3x4's that I was lucky enough to take in the past. I guess for me seeing how I've already shot a 3x3, 4x4, and 5x5, it would be cool to take a 2x2 to finish the series off. If I get the chance, I'm probably going to take this buck. I'll post more pictures of him in October and let you guys see how he finishes up, as long as he keeps coming in. Thanks for the responses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mattys281 Report post Posted August 30, 2019 That’s an awesome/cool buck. I don’t think I’d let him walk by without putting an arrow in the air Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Outdoor Writer Report post Posted August 30, 2019 I've never been a "how much does it score" type. Thus, I would shoot it without hesitation just for its uniqueness. I killed the 3x3 buck below in Colorado because of its symmetry and the unusual little devil points in front of the main beams. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lancetkenyon Report post Posted August 30, 2019 Depends. Up on the Kaibab or Strip, no. Anywhere else, yes. If he has been a 2x2 for 3-4 years, his genetics are bad. So cut him from the gene pool now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wildwoody Report post Posted August 30, 2019 Agreed I love big 2 points, mule or white, just like huge 5 point bulls. Just me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
