Hey, BackBoy

It's so nice to see antlers starting to develop.  Can't wait 'till they grow out some more.  Did you take these over on the wet side, or over here in eastern WA?

Thanks for sharing these.

I beieve I know where you took those pics. Be careful if you go down a gravel road to take those pics, its a private drive and NOT a county road, the guy is a jerk, last fall a bunch of people went down the gravel road to take pics thinking it was a county road and the guy took his horse trailer and blocked everybody in and called the cops.

One of them was probably robodad, checking to see if that was a food plot next to public land, and gonna report the owner of an advantage   :tdown:

Looks like the area below the gates on the way into the Observatory area.
If you shoot the first one you will never get that true trophy.
