Here Are 10 Bucks We’ve Been Impressed With Already This Year

The giant bit the early season bullet.

Hunting early in the season can sure pay off. There’s always the story of that one guy with the friend who knows somebody that shot a once-in-a-lifetime buck on opening day. If you take your off-season prep seriously, or if you’re incredibly lucky, you can make quick work of filling tags. Here are 10 awesome bucks already on the ground this year.

Wide Body

Here is a super cool buck from this season I was able to help with! We took some unreal bucks at @colorcountryoutfitters this year. I can't wait for next year already! Now time for some of our own hunts! Colorado is up this weekend and I am so excited to see what it has in store for us this year.
