GREAT pictures.

as far as width, he looks 35 but his ears appear to be small which makes it tough, so my guess is 31"-32".

awesome looking buck!

Thought this might be the same buck but they where in different areas.

I kinda agree with lewy here. Not to :stirthepot: even more. Depends on how far you are from the animals. And how much you are disturbing them. But I love the pic's. That's why we can't go look for horns up at Oak Creek now until May 1st.

These pics are taken from long distance with 600mm+ lenses, and we are not chasing any of them just walking through the areas, they really dont even pay us much attention, Once they spot us they typically go on with feeding as normal, but I understand what you guys are saying.

I didnt shoot that pic I think Bone did, I just pulled out of the archived threads. We both saw the same buck a few times last year while scouting for 300.

Vegetarians?..Vegetarians are cool.  All I eat are vegetarians....except for the occasional mtn. lion steak.

I woulds say just dont post any with them hauling a$$ in deep snow. Dosn't look good. I honestly dont care but others obviously do and we ought to be a bit more careful or we'll lose more grounds to walk around on before march.  :twocents:

Yes that was my big three last year.  I looked for him again yesterday but couldn't find him.  I found another in his place.  Hes a good one.  Yep, you'll note a real decrease in quality of shots.  I was shooting him at about 800+ yards.  He didn't even know I was there, because I didn't want to disturb them.  I actually watched a buck shed yesterday and walked away as to not disturb them.  They'll be there when the snow melts.  Now if they were the size of Sliders buck I might ahve been tempted. ;)
