2020 Blacktail rut/pre-rut and post rut thread
fishnfur:
Killer buck Sundance! I knew you'd find a great buck before the season was over. That is a very cool rack. 6 X 5 - eyeguards?
Could you make any sense out of why the deer were being so vocal? Was the buck pushing the does around or was there another buck there?
fishnfur:
Another awesome buck shows up while I was typing. Congrats bornhunter! That buck is a toad too!
BA Mongor:

There is a split on the left G2 that may/may not count but I measured it at 1 1/8". If that's included it's a 6X7 (counting eyeguards and drop tine), gross in the low 150's. He had a doe locked down and there were two smaller bucks circling within 50 yards. A couple fawns were hanging around also, but the vocalizations were coming from the satellite bucks and the mature buck. They were about 20 yard apart and talking back and forth, honestly you wouldn't have been able to hear these deer from further then 75 yards away. I had the satellite bucks at 5 yards but they didn't make me, then the doe and the big buck moved to a window at 7 yards and I was able to sneak an arrow in him. Thank God for tall ferns and no wind.
OutHouse:
