Just up behind the house, sorry it's so far away, couldn't get him to stand still for very long.

Think I might want to live at your house :chuckle:. Or at least visit regularly, thanks for sharing the photo.

Ty, you should have seen the dandy in my yard a while back. I have a place in Pine Cliffs.

There used to be a lot more deer in pinecliffs. I haven't seen much sign of them around this winter.

Nice buck though.

You should see the hog coming in to GC.  I had him at 30 yards a week or so ago, but forgot the camera....duh!  They have a good pic of him over at the saloon though, he is huge for around here.

bowhuntin,
You are right, there used to be a lot more, but even though this last season was very tough, I have seen some very nice bucks that made it.  They just stayed up high a lot longer this fall.

Thats good, hopefully there is no more louse to go around the deer herd in the nile and surrounding units and their numbers will start rebounding. I did see one camp during the late season in the nile with a really nice 4x4 hanging in camp, they are just a lot harder to find the past few years.

I think I may have seen that GC monster too.  I have seen some nice bucks for around here this winter but overall numbers are down.

I haven't seen any deer with the lice this fall.  All of the deer around the house are fat and healthy this year.

Kid,
Yeah, Winter and I were talking about him today, the bucks are losing horn already, so both him and I have been looking for his.

That is good, all the deer I have seen all look healthy too.

Are the bucks you seeing in pinecliffs? I have only seen a couple smaller ones that wouldn't even be legal during the season.

No, most of the good bucks I've seen  have been North of the hiway.

I figured that was where you were seeing them. I was wondering more of where thekid#10 was seeing bucks because my family has a place in pine cliffs also.
