Walked up on this guy and then he took off. He only had one side to begin with when I first saw him. Then I saw him a couple minutes later with nothing. Looked around a bit and found a couple drops of blood and it was laying in the snow

Nice one.

Man it’s early to push the animals around.

Agreed. Should propose a shed hunting season to give the ungulates a break during their hardest time of year.

They can’t manage anything correctly , u think even saying that is a great idea , they do that and u can bet you will be paying for a permit

I know…they could screw up a wet dream. But between the drought and blue tongue last year, increasing predator numbers every year and the tough winter we’re already having, they need all the help they can get. Even if they could just get until March 15 or April 1 before people start pushing them all over the countryside it would help them out.
Agree with you 100%

Well too start do you predator hunt ? And not just during regular big game season.in the off season if every hunter did   That would help ten times more than that , blue tongue and drought yes were super rough , how many people actually shed hunt for blacktail sheds not many , I’m not saying your wrong but look giving more regulation won’t help , maybe by talking to other people about the concerns helps but let’s not ask for another regulation , the issues with the herds are because of mismanagement

I don’t have the slightest clue of what’s going on with blacktail populations, I didn’t know we were discussing strictly black tail wintering areas. All I know is in eastern Washington we already have a *censored* ton of snow and winter isn’t even half way over, a buncha guys hiking around in pushing deer all over isn’t easy on them. That’s all I’m saying.
Did you notice my profile picture? Nope, I don’t do any predator hunting in the wintertime LOL

Agree w ya highcountry hunter, local blacktail have it a bit easier in the winter, my gripes about people pushing animals around too soon are more for those Eastside critters that really need to be left alone.  Have a pic of a spike blacktail on my camera that already dropped, seems really early for a young one.

Lol  didn’t even look at the pic and that’s great most people complaining about it though don’t predator hunt which will help them the most , and I love picking up fresh sheds much like anyone I just wait when it comes to the east side and I know a lot of others who don’t  , not  trying to be a jerk just pointing out a lot of folks don’t hunt predators and complain about the herd sizes

First brown of the year. I was driving around the farm looking for coyotes when I spotted a buck packing only one side. He started to run and his antler just popped off while I was watching. First time I have ever seen one drop.

Sure... You know that they are like a skink and if chased this time of year will drop antlers and run away to save their own life! How dare you!          ... Nice find! Lol

I know you are being funny, but Sadly  a lot of jerks do it on purpose, for that exact reason.
