Nice pictures Hunt!! I hunted over there near Custards last stand on a ranch run by my friend brother in law. I didn't see any real enormous bucks but some decent sized ones. Great pics thanks again for posting..

Hey Sky, "you've got mail"

Hunt how many acres is that ranch you hunt on near Decker? Nice deer big body. I shot a 3 point over there that was huge in the body but was an older 3 point past his prime.

Hey Sky, the ranch is a total of 24,000 acres right now but will probably be a little larger next year I'm told.

Did you get some pics of that 3 point? We saw some absolute toads that were 3 points as well. One I put around the 30" mark. I was only able to get to a about 800 yards so my pics are not the best but here is one that I really liked, he should go about 26". I was hoping Luke was going to make it over and try for this guy but he didn't make it.

Your right Jackelope, not bad for a 3, of course he has nice brow tines too, so most would call him a 4.

Yep nice buck too Hunt!! I will have to dig out my pictures. Its amazing over there how you see tons of small 2-points and spikes then the rut comes on and the bigger boys start comming out of the woowork. Were you able to go over there and hunt some prarie Ghosts? I shot one over there.
