Course an oragne christmas tree permit is about 10 bucks compared to a 200 dollar deer tag in this state, so get some black electrical tape and tape it on good, maybe the game warden won't bother ya :chuckle:

I know this doesn't mean much... But I tried to zoom in on the plate of the truck in the first pic... Looks like maybe the state starts with a W... But not WA colored... I'm not very good though...    :dunno:  Don't really know who would come from much farther then ID or OR to hunt WA imo...

 :yeah:That's what happened.  The deer's rack was so big that he tagged it with a Christmas tree tag.... :chuckle:

I passed through Colville today and stopped by les Schwab's.  They already took down all the photos but I asked the lady(so take this with a grain of salt) if they had a picture of a record caliber buck and she said one didn't come to mind.  So then I drove over to Clark's.  I asked the guy there the same question.  He said there was a big one taken there during the late rifle. Asked if he had a picture of it...turns out he did.  Showed me a picture of the buck posted above(not the same picture, but same buck). I pulled up this thread and did a side by side comparison with the picture on this post and the picture he had,  it was def the same buck. The guy acted like he knew what he was talking about. He said he thought it would gross in the high 190's.

Well, that buck would be in league with the little buck that got ran out of town by the big buck, so I doubt thats the big one, and as stated.....i think orange is wisconsin tag maybe......

Wisconsin tags are white.  ;)

To me the orange looks like a tag/license holder like this one...  :dunno:

"190's Gross" looks about right.  I love the mass.  I have some sheds from Stevens Co. that look alot like that set.

Curious whether it was taken on private or public.

Is this the one?  :drool:

Very good friend shot a buck near identical to that about 20 years ago Just north of Colville.  It scored 172 after deductions.

I hesitate getting into any scoring debates and the flexi tape around here.  Nice buck but far from Superbuck(score wise).   I bet I saw 5 bucks this fall bigger than him alone(whities).  They don't stand around and ask for autographs though.   Don't take my post as negative.   That is a beautiful buck and I would be happy as all get out to have tagged it.

     D.B., I'm not sure if it was public or private.... Although I would guess private. All I know is the guy who shot him is my daughters' neighbor in Moses. She sent me the pics, and he's definitely a keeper!  :twocents:
