He might pick up a sticker or something but he won't become a 4 IMO.  I might disagree with Hornseeker a bit about mass.  That will be his frame, he might redistribute a bit, but I think he might gain a little as he gets shorter.  and I do agree...he is WAY COOL.  I hope I find his sheds.  I would like to measure him officially.

I agree... He is way cool. I love those big 3 points. Over the years hanlding hundreds of muledeer racks I think he will gain more mass and shorter tine length as/if he gets older. Still way cool buck.

So Doug I take it you are retiring that arrow and will put it on display when you get the old boy mounted? Did Ida get out this year and tromp around in the brush?

I have sharpened it.  It is back in te quiver and I am going to use it in Idaho.   I have a new magazine artical brewing in my mind.  3 bucks, and a Dawg, one Broadhead.   Idabooner is being occupied by a new housemate.  Mugs is keepin him pretty close to home.

Thank you sir.  Headed out in a couple hours.   Here is a picture of the buck that got mine killed.  I wonder if he appreciated me eliminating the competetion.

this is a misc pic of a buck that I would have to admit I didn't see at first.  he is about 800 yards away.  I spotted the Doe with the Zen Ray binos and was watching her when he he materialized.

Man I can't tell you how many times I've done that!  Glass up a deer in the open and all your focus is on them then all the sudden another deer pops up thats been in your FOV for 5 minutes!!!

Got some Idaho bone yesterday.  I'll see what I can do to  scrape up with pics.  Probably will take some time.  Then photo safary today.  I think you guys will like the results. ;)

I took 900 today.   That ought to keep you guys entertained for a few.  All in Raw.  I need to go buy another $100 photocard. :)   What I really liked was filling up my truck with gas that was like $1.80 per gallon.  Hell, I might be able to swing my Montana hunt after all.
