2015 MF Blacktail
« on: November 02, 2015, 03:23:56 PM »
I typically don't post much, but there's been a lot of nice BT taken this year so I thought I would post this up for you die hard BT hunters.  I was planning on hunting all of the last week of MF for BT, but i was able to get in one day the first week.  It turns out i wouldn't need the last week.  This deer was not where i expected him to be but he gave me enough time to get off a good shot and my season was done.  Luckily a buddy of mine came in and helped me pack him back to my truck, or i would have been more sore than i was the next day.  Hope everyone enjoys the pictures and has a good rest of the season.  Next stop for me is Idaho.

Great buck! Thanks for posting.
People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.

Why yes I am  :)

Thanks for the information, however, I'm going to have Wildlife Art Taxidermy in Custer do the work. He's done all my mounts.

He did have another small patch just left of center, so not a full patch.

That made me laugh. Obviously it's a skagit county buck, they don't get that big up on the baker highway...

Gorgeous.  Really good mass and height too.  Congratulations.
