Here's the buck I killed in the Entiat in 2004.

Nice buck Bobcat, like the double throat patch and monster eye guards.

Thats a sweet buck Bobcat. I swear there is something genetic about weak backs and HUGE eyeguards in that area. Did you have hime mounted, that is a nice cape with the double throat.

bobcat · « **Reply #3 on:** March 31, 2007, 08:53:27 AM »

Yes I did have him mounted. I have a picture of the mount, if I can find it I'll post it. Yeah those short back tines didn't help the score any that's for sure. I had him scored in Puyallup and it was just over 162. I guess a lot of guys wouldn't have shot him because of the weak backs, but he was good enough for me.

They would have been fools. Thats a great buck. I hope you can find that picture of the mount. Looking forward to seeing it.

Here it is...

AWESOME! I didn't notice all of those little kickers in your field shots. Again, sweet looking buck. Those eyeguards are awesome.

Great buck Bob. Who did the work?

GOcougsHunter · « **Reply #8 on:** March 31, 2007, 01:38:15 PM »

I encourage anyone who wants to see bucks like this to try and pull an Entiat tag. I saw close to 30 bucks and 100+ does in 2005. Lots of venison hanging!

Good looking buck, I would have taken him too.

The Bear's Den. I dropped it off there about November 10th, and had it back a couple days before christmas.

That's a sweet buck. I would have shot it!

billythekidrock · « **Reply #12 on:** March 31, 2007, 04:30:49 PM »

Isn't that where you took your spring bear? Does that guy do all his work? I have heard rumors that he ships alot of it out.

PolarBear · « **Reply #13 on:** April 01, 2007, 10:02:06 AM »

Great buck, congrats!! All kinds of character.
I think that the Bear's Den farms out all of their european mounts and a lot of their smaller game and bird mounts. I could be wrong but that is what I have heard. A lot of the better taxidermists dont have time to mess with the little stuff and The Bear's Den is probably one of them.

bobcat · « **Reply #14 on:** April 01, 2007, 10:51:11 AM »

Yep, I think Polarbear is correct.

Muleyslyr · « **Reply #15 on:** April 03, 2007, 01:48:54 PM »

Wow.....great buck! An even sweeter lookin' mount! Can't believe you got it back in little over a month. I didn't think that was possible.

Congrats to ya.

I didn't either! Only problem is it still smelled for a while, it had that "chemical" smell, from the tanning process I guess. But it was nice not having to wait a year, or more, to get it back, like I hear is the case with many taxidermists.

Nice buck, Bob! I've still got pic's of that one save on my computer.

Miles · « **Reply #18 on:** May 08, 2016, 06:51:38 PM »

Nice buck!

Falcon · « **Reply #19 on:** May 09, 2016, 07:12:15 PM »

Very nice buck. Love the huge eye guards👍

great thread to revive!!!!!!!!!!!

SkookumHntr · « **Reply #21 on:** May 11, 2016, 09:00:58 AM »

2004 was an epic year! I know it was the best fall general season i seen in my lifetime! I got a really nice 25" 4x4 with long eyeguards! Lots of huge bucks killed that year!

bobcat · « **Reply #22 on:** May 11, 2016, 09:19:18 AM »

Yeah, 2004 they did really well in the general season, just before my permit hunt started on November 1st. It seems like 2015 just might have been better than 2004 though, from what I've heard.

SkookumHntr · « **Reply #23 on:** May 11, 2016, 11:42:59 AM »

I think 2004 was better.

MLBowhunting · « **Reply #24 on:** May 11, 2016, 12:07:06 PM »

Lots of character on your buck Bobcat.

mfswallace · « **Reply #25 on:** May 11, 2016, 08:59:31 PM »

all years were better before wolves

MatthewHunter98 · « **Reply #26 on:** May 24, 2016, 08:21:10 PM »

I'm not new to hunting deer, but I sure would like to be new to hunting in the snow during eastern rifle season like your buck there! We need some weather!

killer buck. I dig the double white patch

willapawapiti · « **Reply #27 on:** May 25, 2016, 09:02:25 PM »

Great buck, I'd pull the trigger, no hesitation!
