Stop with the judgemental comments. It's his hunt he can do what he wants. If he wants to watch the deer or shoot it is his decision. If he had shot then somebody would be on here complaining that he shouldn't have. Just enjoy the video. A majestic creature going about his routine. An awesome sight.
Lots of people questioning why the videographer didn't shoot? If you watch animals going about their day, you learn things. Plus, they are beautiful. Yes, I hunt deer. I don't shoot every adult deer I see. In fact, unless the freezer is empty? I will often just sit and watch them on a nice evening, even if I have a rifle and unfilled deer tags. I usually put 2 in the freezer in November, mostly 2 or 3 year old does, good food. Tender and fat, the deer are mostly feeding on crops around here, don't have to travel much. Farmers growing alfalfa and corn think of them as big pests, our soybean field in early August looks like someone used a hedge trimmer on the field margins, trimming the edges all exactly to one deer neck length in and chewed down to a comfortable height for a deer to munch. Last year my zone had the second largest harvest in the state. The DNR issues an either sex tag for your first license, then an "antlerless only" tag for your second in my zone. I leave tougher, older buck "hat racks", usually with gamier tasting meat from the rut for people who trophy hunt. I can't eat antlers.
Good footage of something hardly seen by many, a mature buck that has evaded a hunter his whole life, he would have been a nice buck to take but sometimes it’s not about the kill. I can also understand why many would want to take him as well, Consider yourself lucky to have seen a buck that old, best of luck out there hunting.
As he walked by he s whispered his age didn't he???? (Hey, I'm only 7 years old ) a geeeser and you need to take me out, but I know the games you camo guys play. Later......
That was a big boy for sure. Surprised he didn't bolt earlier, as he had you pegged for a good while...just couldn't figure out what he was looking at I guess. He was likely also rattled a bit by the rut he was obviously in....women will make you stupid!
Nice work, you found an aging bucks core area. He was extending or making a scrape line, when you see their belly droop, that is when they are urinating on the scrape. I always hunted the edges of core areas and hunted one or two large dominate bucks. Banks of the Sougahatchee, Notasulga, Lochapoca, Al. Awesome place for turkey and deer.
I'm from Alabama and hunt the Talladega National Forrest and have taken some nice bucks on cheaha mountain! Judging from the terian and the boulder type of rocks this is on cheaha mountain! Most likely in the wilderness area where no dog running goes on because there's no roads to cut the deer off! This guy here is probably hunting with his camera and forgot about his weapon! No doubt this is an old buck!! Nice video though!!
@@ryanishkonk3446 Your right about that! I'm looking at how open the woods are and the mountain oaks and huge popular trees along with the boulders there's not many places in Alabama that I've hunted or hiked that's like this place!
i';d a shot that buck. he's old, not gonna get any bigger in the rack, before he goes from coyotes or winter kill,id a put him in the freezer. he's heavy no doubt
Great buck...giant buck...awesome encounter! Camera stability?...ugh! Lol♥️ The Gospel of John, when you're ready to allow, Jesus, to enlighten your understanding of Salvation.🔥
he was laying down those scrapes..... ;-) * camera man must have been down wind of the buck and hugging that tree to break up his silhouette... buck also got Doe on the brain ( rut )....makes them stupid...** Why did you not take the shot...???
How do you call this video hunting if all you are doing is filming him. That is not a breeder buck he should have been a dead one. Nice video but next time don't put hunting unless you are going to shoot it at some point
These videos are stupid if all you are going to do is zoom in and out and not fire a shot. These aren't hunting videos. I can look out my window and see this.
Nice looking beast.
What a pleasure to share the woods with him.
I don’t think I would have let him walk.
Much respect.

Looks like she was a lactating mother. Your dog, Englandboy, is a joy!
Who needs a head on a wall when you have a trophy video like that. Nice.

Well said man!

That buck looked old as hell just by how grey he is.
Man, big old, big bodied deer wide rack, but a little skimpy on points, you probably made the right decision.
Chunky old man. makes me hungry just lookin at him
I really enjoyed the topic of this video
That’s a Stud man! Big body deer!! He’s definitely been eating good! He gona be a real nice buck next year if he makes it…. Thanks for sharing….
An older , mature deer. Fun video to watch.
It may not have 20 points but body size and age he is slammer!
Damn that's a big bodied deer for Alabama
That dude is old. I'm guessing 6,7,8 years? Way past his prime.

You know how many limestone boulders there are in Alabama my dude🤣 there’s no way you can tell just by a couple min of video
@@ryanishkonk3446 Your right about that! I'm looking at how open the woods are and the mountain oaks and huge popular trees along with the boulders there's not many places in Alabama that I've hunted or hiked that's like this place!
@@brianwills299 It was NE Alabama in Jackson County, by the way.
What a beautiful animal, protected in our country, as they All should be.
Good job don't need to pull the trigger on everything you see
That my friend would’ve been one dead deer
Very nice video.
i';d a shot that buck. he's old, not gonna get any bigger in the rack, before he goes from coyotes or winter kill,id a put him in the freezer. he's heavy no doubt

So where's the hunt?
So I take it you didn't shoot him? But you were hunting?
USA2ndAmendment im guessing he is a idiot!

Obviously it was early pre rut with him still that fat, deer that's been running doe before long start looking pretty skinny, and he was a fat daddy
WOW
Good job
There is a reason I never hunt from the ground. He saw you way off.......trees bro
He smelled him
Damn boi hes thick!

I'm looking for public hunting places in Alabama
Try skyline
Bankhead or Sam r murphy
How do you call this video hunting if all you are doing is filming him. That is not a breeder buck he should have been a dead one. Nice video but next time don't put hunting unless you are going to shoot it at some point
