Check out the tail on Bones buck. Little hybrid action

Pretty sure that's a long way from any blacktail.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

I was talking Whitetail. I've seen a ton of crosses west of Spokane and my buddy shot a pig of a cross in Swakane. The thing about crosses, whether its (Muledeer x Blacktail) or(Muledeer x Whitetail) is a lot like humans. You take a little of your looks from your dad and a little from your mom, with varying degrees. IMHO

From everything that I have read it is very rare for a mule deer and a whitetail to cross.  It is so rare that mule deer and blacktail cross more than mule deer and whitetail.  And the best way to know if it's a cross is by the tarsal gland.  Not by looking at the tail.

Bigshooter,
You are correct, way more rare for the Whitetail cross vs Blacktail but trust me they do and I have seen a bunch of them.

RileyB,

Nice buck

These four are all between 151 and 166


[smg id=8975]

[smg id=8976]

[smg id=8974]

[smg id=9873]

And, here's one that is less than 150
[smg id=3948]
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.
