some nice looking young bucks.. they look healthy. Not sure, but they look good sized.. what do you think they're weighing out at (I'm guessing mid 100's. 140-160ish.. but I could be wayyyyyyy off)

I think you are correct on the weights.
Im seeing, and taking, larger deer over the last couple of years.
This summer Im seeing big-bodied does as well.

Better feed?
Minerals?
My apples?

A couple very nice bucks that still have another month or two to grow.

One year, I watched a 10-pointer clean into ML season waiting for him to shed his velvet. The neighbor got him!

The following year I did not see a single buck in velvet from Archery season on.

We never know.....

The woods are full of acorns right now. The deer and turkeys aren't visiting the fields very much.
Hint Hint.

Now would be a good time to move the stands up on the mountain; scout for trails and rubs.
