vail buck

[kneckshot 1]

I guess this is the only one the others were on my old phone here the uncropped pic yes the eyes were blackened

[cbond3318]

Cool buck! did you cut his head off and then remember you wanted an "as he lay" pic?

[kentrek]

this buck looks just as fake as the first time you posted it...

[YoterHunter]

We never did get the real story of this buck. Why did you black out the eyes. And the head looks like it was cut off or strangled buy a rope or wire. Ice seen 1000 nd of pic of deer and elk and never seen anyone flack out the eyes. We all can't figer this out. And you never came back to defend yourself .

[trophyhunt]

Very strange about the eyes?? And the head looks croped.

[jay.sharkbait]

I don't know the OP or anything about this buck.

But from now on I'm blacking out the eyes in every picture of every animal I kill. 

[singleshot12]

not this one again ignore it folks who ever is posting it is obviously a non-english speaking 9 year old troll. Let him or her get his or her jollies they'll grow up eventually 

[cbond3318]

I shot a very similar deer this year, unique indeed.

[6x6in6]

Can a moderator just merge these threads so the OP can have just one place to take his lumps.

Well I hope it was.......

1) shot at 50 yards
2) shot with a .338 or larger caliber
3) 1 mile from the vehicle that transported you to the site
4) the gutpile was blessed by a Rabbi, Priest, Shamen or the Dali Lama himself
5) said gutpile was 1.5 miles from the nearest road
6) carcass was, at earliest opportunity removed from the back of the truck and transferred to a coroners van for transport home

[Old Man Yager]

WHOA! If you look at the eyes on that buck for a few, you could get hypnotized! Be careful!!

[wildwood]

there them zombie bucks   

[Bigshooter]

It looks to me that the stick holding up the head has been drawn in.

I blacked. The eyes so my daughter wouldn be freaked yes the kneck is broken and it is a stick holding his head up thats blood on the horns because I didnt have any water around when I was draging it and it was last  minute pic but after this I will not post any thing else

[Skyvalhunter]

kneckshot 1 don't let these clowns curtail you from posting. They are just jealous and are part of the reason why others have stopped posting pics also. They don't know when to compliment or bite their tongue.

I might still post pics, but will not post details.

. Congrats on the deer. All you needed is to explain the situation like you just did. U wouldn't taken the Bassein .

[Smossy]

Looks like a legit photo to me minus the eyes there's no degradation upon close inspection of the pixels around the head and or neck. Unless hes the best photoshop artist in the world, I believe its a legit photo just in a strangly awkward pose.
Its funny how half you guys are like a firing squad and just wait to try to hate on any and everything that's not perfect, ethical, or against what you believe or think. Same reason why alot of people dont come on here much anymore. Getting really tired of some of the negativity on this forum, it gets way out of hand quick.
In short, some of you are a holes.
Even if it somehow is a fake (which I highly doubt) no need to be rude.

[bullcanyon]

Been thinking the same thing for awhile Smossy.  Think I've said something similar not too awful long ago.  Some people can't help themselves but to cut someone else down because of there smaller than average "personality".

Would take a real stupid sum gun to post pictures of an illegal animal on a message board.  Doubt there is anything not legit about this deer.  Picture is a little off, but who gives a rats behind?

[billythekidrock]

Photo looks legit to me as well. After opening it in an editing program I could only see an edit to the antler (besides the eyes). The head, neck and even the stick all seem to be part of the original photo.

There are way too many negative remarks regarding photos and we are taking notice.

Lots of people, myself included, don't post as much as they would like (if at all) because there seems to be a some members that are just waiting to slam others.

Now if you ask "how big", "what's it score" or say a 10lb fish weighs 15lbs then be prepared for the onslaught. But if you post an antlerless/spike deer, you should not have to be worried that someone will call you out for wasting a tag or for killing a doe.

We don't have a plan yet, but we want everyone to feel free to post.

[cbond3318]

C'mon MEN , if any 20 of us were sitting around a campfire with each other and one of us said "hey, check out this deer I shot" and passed a pic like that around , what would the comments be ? Probably real similar to what gets typed on here. I agree there are things that are out of line and usually get deleted. Please don't frown on a bunch of guys sitting around a "campfire" busting someone's balls. Isn't that what this is?

I think it's a cool buck, but what ya do chop it's head off first?

[_TONY_]

Yeah, but you got to remember, these are the days where everyone makes the team, no one wins or loses, and everyone gets a trophy.

Shame on people for doubting/questioning a really strange photo.... A photo in which the OP could have just explained, in the first place, instead of letting it ride for so long.

This isn't your average campfire, This is a forum where a majority of people are strangers to each-other and no one knows one another, Everyone sits behind a username.
Just because its a campfire, doesnt mean you automatically have permission to trash people.
Its more of a "lets talk about random nonsense" kinda thing.
Website aside, I dont think should be poppin off with the negativity without knowing the other person.
"Bob you know that was your doe you put a bucks head on " not "I think the OP is a fraud troll "

Get my drift?

[cbond3318]

Wish I could get your drift but I can't , I just read through both strange threads about this buck and the most derogatory comment I read was you calling half these guys a holes. :dunno:This will just go round and round so I'm out of it, sorry.

singleshot..you've been around this site along time, kinda surprised you'd jump a guys sh.t for really just posting a pic of a buck without a bunch of details. He doesn't owe us an explanation. Does it really matter if he didn't take Eastmans class on how to take great field photos, or he blackened out the eyes? Maybe they had a glare to em and he was just trying to clean it up a bit. I've taken solo pics of animals I've killed before using a stick to hold his head up cuz I thought it showed the animal better. And because the guy doesn't use proper punctuation he's a 9yr old troll? Idk man, gotta say you and all the negative guys "sitting around the campfire" sound like the trolls to me.

[singleshot12]

That pic had all the ingredients of a hoax. From the covered up eyes, to the separated head,to the inked out tag,and to the blood soaked bleached antlers. Just doesn't look like the norm pacific nw blacktail pic But my apologies if it isn't a hoax

I agree.  It's a public forum.  If you have thin skin don't post.

    aside from the eyes, and the fact the head and body are not attached, and likely two different animals, nobody has noticed the crazy pixel action in the middle of the main beam on bucks right side?         more obvious photoshopping                             aside from all this being total bs... i just want to know where this guy keeps getting the "k" in neck

[Muleyslyr]

The pic is odd, there's no doubt. But really, who cares? Maybe the guy loves hunting but hasn't killed anything in years and just wants to contribute but never can cuz he has nothing. Could be any number of reasons why the pic is so tampered. Truth is, there's a lot of people that hunt who are unsuccessful year after year and never get that chance to get the "kudos" from everyone. Idk, guess I've always been more the type that would rather defend someone then rip em'.

[sirmissalot]

It is a funny looking picture, probably would have looked better as an "as he lays shot" with the head laying right on the ground. Nice little buck though I have a hard time not shooting any three point blacktail, and you said you shot it with a bow right?
