NEED SIZE on this Deer
« on: November 30, 2013, 08:30:26 PM »
Hey, I would love to hear your ideas on the size of this Blacktail.  He comes back every year to my moms apple tree....and I'm thinking next year is the year.  Any thoughts??

Thanks!

He's big.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

With just that front view that buck will go anywhere from 115 all the way up to 140 pending on what's going on in the back...

Maybe 120-150..he has alot of mass

Very hard to give a score on with that photo, I would hope that his left side is bigger than a two point.  I would guess he is a big deer, I would have taken him this year. You should put up a trail camera!

well to be honest he is probably bigger than you will normally find when it comes to blacktail, especially when it comes to public ground, which i am sure this isnt. he would have been hittn the deck this year for sure  :tup:

In Renton, up the cedar river Bluff.  I wish I had a better pic.  I will put out a camera and hope to have more photos later.

Definitely big enough that I wouldn't consider passing him up. Get him before a cougar does!
