Late buck
« on: December 13, 2012, 07:47:49 PM »
Well here's my late mission buck and after seeing the zoo around cashmere the week prior to the season  I decide to stay high and catch the migration. Guess what it didn't happen tell last week the big buck are crossing Hwy 97 as I post. I back packed into the wilderness boundary for three day and just couldn't get into the deer I wanted to kill or pack out. Day four I came down to a spot that I spotted  a few local doe's and a couple good bucks just no shooters earlier in the season, well with fog,snow and lack of time and possibility of a  mass migration I decided on this buck. I'm happy but still a little disappointed on the potential this tag could of produced.

Great buck! Sounds like you gave it all you had and that's what makes a trophy a trophy no matter the score. But that's not a buck you have to justify hanging your tag on to anybody, good solid buck
