Big Blacktails
« on: March 20, 2009, 04:14:24 PM »
Let's see if we can salvage a similar thread, and post some pics of above average Blacktails. No drama please, if you don't have anything nice to say, please don't say it.

7mag, thanks for starting this thread I will get some pics posted this weekend once I get out to the house and take a pic of the one we have mounted. Will also try and get a pic of the racks we have outside on the barn too. Lots of big Blacktail racks were justed nailed on the wall, wish we had the ones back that have been give away and knife handles made. I am sure there was more than one given away that would have made minimum book.

OK Lets stop  :beatdeadhorse: and post some dandies here.

Dead or alive? LOL

I've got pictures of some nice velvet bucks I've seen while scouting.

ill post this again just to get it started.
No people will tamely surrender their Liberties, nor can any be easily subdued, when knowledge is diffused and Virtue is preserved. On the Contrary, when People are universally ignorant, and debauched in their Manners, they will sink under their own weight without the Aid of foreign Invaders.

This is the 4x6 I shot about 9 years ago, he weighed right at 300 lbs. on the hoof.  Hanging it looked like a cow elk next to my buddies 3x4 he shot 2 days earlier.



this is what is hanging around my brother's house, that are safe as long as they stay put, due to home owners assoc.


By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

Here is one of my pet bucks.  He needs a couple more years on him to be a shooter but I don't shoot my pets.  (Except for beef).

Literally popped my shoulder out trying to drag him 200 yds.  Could not even hold a cup of coffee in my left hand for about 6 weeks, I would drop it.  That is what the "Yacolt Burn" used to produce.

This is my great uncles buck shot in 1925 he nets 171.  It was 4th in the world 5 years ago but I know it has gone down since then.

This is my 08 buck.  I shot him in a god forsaken spot on th breaks of the Klick.  I know he is technically not a true blacktail but I can tell you there isn't a stitch of mule deer in this guy.
