Thank you!  I think this buck will forever haunt me.  I only got a few photos.   I feel very fortunate to have seen and filmed this one.

That's a tank. He probably walks around asking if his body makes his antlers look small.
Definitely tag worthy. Nice pic.

I just pictured somebody getting hooked up by the neck between the g3-g4 and getting absolutely ragdolled

Doug, you get some of most amazing photos of some truly trophy animals! I’ve always wondered… do you stay local? Do you have a statewide drive you make? Or do you have a multi state “Doug’s awesome bucks” tour you make every year to capture these amazing bucks? Thanks for sharing every year. Gives guys hope that big ones still exists!!

You're able to constantly post pictures of bucks week after week that are bigger than I've seen in a lifetime of hunting.  Well done!

Thank you! 

It has evolved throughout the years, and changes every year.  I lost like two thirds of my vacation because of a job change, and my dad passed this year.  Those had huge impacts.  Obvious time constraints, and the lack of “pull” to go up to the Methow, compared to most years.  I typically start the year off and depending on what I am finding concentrate my efforts.  I obviously have places I return to yearly to follow certain bucks or areas that always hold bucks.    I basically am a camp on wheels for a couple weeks and go where the action is, which changes constantly due to hunter activity, weather (snow), temps, etc. There are  places my wife likes to go and that might influence as well if she has time off.

Ha haaa! That's a little different than what I was imagining. I was thinking of him brought down by a hunter and then laying your head in the forks and those forks would be well past your face!
