I'll bet from the side view that buck will about give you a heart attack!

Holy cow that's tall. Height of the rut is right. I've ever seen one that tall. Thanks for sharing

Bone, last year you mentioned a possible B&C 3 point that you'd photographed. I don't recall seeing an image of it. Did that ever pan out?

Height is a vastly underrated quality in a mule deer. He would give those big ole wide suckers a headache in a fight!

Lol you got that right. Reach is important in a fight.

I was just thinking about any advantage in fighting. Would a big wide rack be better or something like this brute has? I tend to think that if there is adequate power in the legs I would want that tall rack because it would get inside and perhaps have a better chance at doing some face damage. On the other hand, swinging around a wide rack would probably have its advantages as well.

You didn’t see it last year, or did what pan out?   I didn’t find him again this year.

I must have missed it last year. I just remember the original post. To bad you couldn't track him down again.
