That buck looks like the ones that hang around Wallowla (sp?) lake. You can walk right up to em. First time I was there, I saw like a 7 year old kid petting a 170 buck. Im pretty sure they are all muleys around the lake though.

Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Nice bucks for sure

Nice. But I think they need a different class. Im with houndhunter. I dont see were bucks like that are the same as our "true" Blackies with good mass and super dark antlers. Those are surely cross bred and look more like Mulies than blackies anyday. I realise that the books class them as blackies, but not like the Blackies I hunt from Quilisene to coil.
I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me to.

Yeah, Wallowa campground has got some super mulies haning around in it.  Nice place to take the eastern relatives that come to visit so they can see what a mule deer looks like.  Carefull feeding them though... My wife and I saw some dude feeding cheetos to a big non-typical.  He ran out of chow, and the deer chased him around his camper a couple of times before he could get inside :chuckle:  Deer seemed upset.

great bucks, i just dont get it with oregon. i dont get how there blacktails get so much bigger than ours, i have a hard time believing most the time that they are true blacktails

I love it when I see remarks  by Washington guys who still think that this state dosnt produce bcks of that quality. Do people still need to be reminded of a guy named Lester Miller. :dunno:

Not that you would want to because its not exactly hunting or fair, but im guessing you cant hunt those wallowa lake deer?
