I guess I didn't wait long enough for the big one

[bigbeamhunter]

Thanks for the comments guys but this buck is close to my house and sometimes real close I think the battle scar on his side is from fighting his horns are nice
But the buck I shot was bigger body wise and the more dominant buck I think mine was stating to regress

[dougdrake]

Both of those are stud bucks. Congrats

[coachcw]

I'm not taking anything away from a great blackie that you got , but holly molly what a stud ! is that a private acess buck or has he just been willey ?

[bigbeamhunter]

Very very Wiley I hunt public state nat forest but there is private to he was probaly on my land and I didn't know

[boneaddict]

Do you know what class of blacktail thatd fall under ? That first one would be pushing top 5bts ever

[bigbeamhunter]

Yes I know how big he is I have a 142 in on the wall and several between the 110 and 130 that buck is close to 190 plus considering I'm looking at him in the field chasing another buck right now
 I believe in hunting not just killing for the recognition of killing the state record for which he is and within a few inches either way of the all time I've seen him in the yard eating what's left of my apples it's incredible to watch.
  The yard even for me whether it's elk or deer is off limits but if they are out where I hunt em they are fair game
 My nephew is 15 he's hunting next weekend with me so who knows.
I sent him those pics now he hasn't slept for a couple days lol

[RockChuck]

Good Luck to your nephew!! Thats a monster!

[mulehunter]

Very Nice....  For sure those BT are Ghost Bucks out there.

Hope he can handle some buck fever.  A lot of guys couldn't with a big one like that in their sights.  Great buck.

I'm taking the initiative to officially name that buck 'Blackenous Maximus Rackosaurus'
It seems to fit him well.
