THis buck was the cover of my first calender two years ago. I figured when I didn't see him last year, he was dead. They were logging where he was at and I figured hed end up in the back of one of their trucks........about 200 yards from where I took this pic.....I ran into him yesterday. I got a really cool shot of hiim which will more than likely be in this years calender.

Here he was two years ago....remember him?

nice pictures...he didn't get that big by being dumb...loggers or not this guy knows how to survive.

Thanks guys...remember this is two year ago. I am thrilled that this might be the same buck. and OH YES, he has a target on his chest! He survived modern again, and now has to face archery plus I caught a poacher yesterday less than a mile away. a different story.

I think that is really neat that you follow the wildlife in your area like that.

boneaddict · « **Reply #11 on:** October 31, 2012, 10:50:36 AM »

Caught him working this rub over.....in fact, I might not have seen him if not for the rub, as its what I spotted first as it was pretty dark and he blended in pretty well.

that last pic is awesome and would look great in the calendar, his neck is just bulging! You ever going to go after him or continue to enjoy hunting him with a camera.

That's a beauty, gotta love that neck. Great photos as always.

What a stud. Interesting to see that his eye guards are better this year but he has lost some of his mass.... great buck!

boneaddict · « **Reply #17 on:** October 31, 2012, 11:05:10 AM »

I'm seriously contemplating Plat. I was within 20 yards of him. Odds of that happening again. Not so sure. He has alot of arrows to dodge.

I say pick up your bow and stick him before his antlers really recede. And just curious and not looking for your spot but is he an eastside buck because his horns are really dark and shiny resembling a westside buck, or was it raining this day you were out there?

boneaddict · « **Reply #20 on:** October 31, 2012, 11:29:43 AM »

Eastside, they were really dark as several of the bucks are here. Its a pretty wet area, and yes it was pouring. It was a pain trying to keep my camera dry. What was REALLY COOL, was that while watching this guy I spotted some does behind him, then a little two point pushing them around. This guy could care less. THEN.....another old friend showed up. ANOTHER nice buck. His antlers changed alot from what I remember. He was injured severly and I wasn't even sure hed be around. His eye was scared over where he got nailed. The first day I was out I didn't see one buck I had filmed before. I was pretty discouraged. Yesterday I filmed three. I am hoping that means they are showing up now as the rut gets underway.

Awesome pic Bone! Thanks for sharing!

I say different deer...but a relative. The extra point on his right rear is on the wrong side of his antler fork.

It's just the angle of the shots.... Same deer.... Great pics bone.... Amazing he didn't change hardly anything noticable but a little mass...

If that is him, the old boy looks like he might be past his prime and on the downhill. But, he's still a real nice buck so you better get him.

C-Money · « **Reply #25 on:** October 31, 2012, 12:21:09 PM »

Very nice! Hope you can have a chance at him Bone.

PacificNWhunter · « **Reply #26 on:** October 31, 2012, 12:36:55 PM »

Great pics bone! Glad your seeing quality bucks showing up again. These pics are getting pumped for the 25th!

boneaddict · « **Reply #27 on:** October 31, 2012, 12:55:59 PM »

I'm down on the counts this year, but seeing some good stuff. The weather isn't helping much. 60 degrees today The wetness I thought would help.
