Here's a couple long range pics of some bachelor groups I saw this weekend.  Nice potential on  some of those bucks.

Darn - they're awesome, Riccochet.  Much further along in their antler development than the mulies over in Montana that I saw the weekend before.  You've got some great bucks there.  Are they close to where you live, or did you travel for these pics?

Thanks, Tom.  I got a chance to spend a few days down on the Malheur before starting work on Monday (finally employed again) and got a few buck pics.  There are going to be some good bucks this year, although I haven't seen any eye-poppers yet.  Mostly the deer were uncooperative though and I got a bunch of bird pics.



This guy wasn't quite as far along as some of the others in antler development, but he was closer!

Great photos everyone. i wish i had a better camera... i apologize for my poor photo quality. I saw these three bucks on monday on a trip to winthrop.

The first buck is a 3pt blacktail with eyeguards. it was real low light and through the bino's. the picture doesnt do him a justice.

The second buck is a 3pt mulie just outside of town.

The last buck has been running around our place this year.
People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.
