Or down at the end of our block.  5x6 if you count the long brow tines.  He runs with some real big ones and he is no slouch in his own right.  He's old now, he was a real Jim Dandy in his prime. 

You might want to ask him if the rut has started?

can't tell you how many BT's I wanted to shoot on our property that my wife deemed off limits. The worst was a nice 3x4 that showed up during late rifle hunt that was chasing 3 does all over our property for almost 10 minutes and I video taped him.

I saw one bigger by costco in Issaquah but couldn't get my phone out in time to get a picture. He was standing there watching two dog's.

I've had a few smaller bucks coming by, mostly at night.  This old timer, white face and open mouth, came by a few days ago in the middle of the day.  Maybe I should charge for hunting on my 5 acres!

Oh yeah, h was a 4 x 4 right?  Maybe this is the same buck, but he regressed during the season.   :chuckle:

I don't think I could shoot any of my yard deer! 
Now Rick, what's the story you started about roping a deer for a pet???
Here is a link to one version. @jackelope really appreciates attaching links.http://www.darwinawards.com/legends/legends2007-02.html
:chuckle:
"When my bow falls, so shall the world. When me heart ceases to pump blood to my body, it will all come crashing down. As a hunter, we are bound by duty, nay, bound by our very soul to this world. When a hunter dies we feel it, we sense it, and the world trembles with sorrow. When I die, so shall the world, from the shock of loosing such a great part of ones soul." Ezekiel, Okeanos Hunter

:chuckle: ya think?
"So I had this idea to rope a deer and put it in the barn and feed it corn all year...." I think that is how the story goes.


Didn't work... needed a bigger rope. lol
There is no greater respect to have for wildlife than to harvest an animal fairly and use it's flesh to feed your family.  ~me
