Locked up blacktails.

A CLOSE-UP OF THE AMAZING MOUNT OF RICK HAYES' MASON COUNTY BUCK (LEFT) AND THE BLACKTAIL IT FOUGHT TO THE DEATH WITH BEFORE HAYES CAME ALONG IN 2008. (RICK HAYES) -nwsportsmanmag.com

For everybody who didn't have the pleasure of seeing this story in the Mason County journal a few years back, enjoy.  Here's some evidence that rattling could indeed be very effective for blacktails. Also, I wouldn't doubt it if these two were brothers, look at he similarities of the horns.

Cool ..the part I like about this mount is how he captured the death of the one buck ...See how the one alive has brown eyes and the dead one has blue eyes , that's exactly what they look like once they are dead for awhile ..

Drive past it every day.  I hunt the back side of it sometimes.  The place I go is about 1000ft from their property.
