I think you should become a blacktail hunter!

While some places have larger blacktails than others I think you will find that is fine representative of the Blacktail population.

The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

I would call that a "great blackie" and way above average

Nice rack but hes only a 3-3.5 year old , we need to let him have a couple more seasons to put on some mass.

I hate the hunting shows when they say that- hahha


Kill him when you see him and its legal, no question.

He will look so much nicer in November.  I would of course arrow him the first chance I got but would prefer it happen in the late season.

Any 4x4 blacktail with eye guards is a good deer.  :archery_smiley:

I would say its a good buck. Weak on the forkes still. I would also agree he is young and could turn into a masher if he lives a few more years.
