Blacktail Giant

[curlewkiller]

This is a quality Buck in Bellingham

[Thehowler]

I would say so.

[Skyvalhunter]

That's a quality buck a lot of places

[curlewkiller]

I got a text from a friend on this one.  Must be a pet imho

[curlewkiller]

Edit:  Darn autocorrect to blackmail.

Haha, I know that buck well. He used to walk through our job site every morning and I'd just drool as he went by. Not much of a chance that he's ever gonna get hunted. Hopefully he spreads his genes though and we get some of his offspring pushed out into the county.

is that the one that just got poached?  I got a blurb on face about a big well known neighborhood blackie that got poached.  Antlers only taken.   Im blocked here at work so cant compare. Looks similiar.  I thought the other might have had more bases and character but cant really tell in the pic what he has here

I think that's the one on the north side of the college campus, my daughter rented a house there. She saw him quite often.

Doesn't look like he's starving to death

I haven't heard of any Bellingham deer being poached lately. I could have missed something though.

[Buckewe]

The biggest black tails I have ever seen were in Bellinghamy city limits.

[boneaddict]

Nope, it was the ocean shores buck I guess. Sorry

[lokidog]

Wow, wish I could give him a boat ride.....

Right....that'd give the local gene pool a Boost
