It might actually have a shot at being a benchleg. Same yard in Bellevue that that other blacktail I posted was in. And they've recently seen a bear  :rolleyes:

Nice find.  Get the GPS coordinates of that back yard, hang a stand, put up some scent wicks and cross your fingers!  36 days!

I am. I don't think fishnfur is, most people don't wanna miss out on that prized Halloween hunt

I was one of the unfortunate non-draw MS tags.  If I score a OTC MS tag, I'll be out there with my bow as a warm-up for the real show.  If one of those big forkies walks in front of me, I will do my best to end my season early.

I passed on a real nice fork-horn @ 15 yards last year and then kinda' lost interest in deer hunting.  I have a MS deer tag  this year and have a good idea of which buck I am going to be after this year, but that big fork-horn will probably end my season this year if he gives me another chance like he did last year.
