4 point .....decided to pis on himself then go woop up on another 3 for the heck of it, just to feel good about himself.

No more muleys for while, so back to whitie country.  I rattled this guy in about 12, and then another buck in behind me that I didn't see until too late.

[boneaddict]

I had my camera on a tripod, but the legs weren't nearly high enough, so I was holding the camera above my head to try to capture him.  A little uorthodox, but I got a few tht weren't completely blury.  Any tag holders here willing to take this buck?

that dude is massive. is his right g1 split?

[boneaddict]

He ad a point coming out front of it, so yes.  Real narrow, but had the points and the mass.

heresanother buck.  I spotted him and played tag with him for what semed forever.  I knew he had a doe nearby.  Then I heard "the wheez" and I spotted the big boy.  He was about 24 inches and a 5x5, but he had really shor tines.  Neat thing is they were black.  Sorry peeps, no pics of the big guy, but I did get some of the little fellar...

So do the Mulies ever come to the rattleing or just the whities?

[boneaddict]

different camera on the bigger buck from above.

[boneaddict]

Thanks Michael.   Yes and no.  They come in, but not nearly like the whities.  The whities come hard and fast.  the muleys usually saunter in.  I brought in two muley does this trip on one rattle.  Mule deer usually come in much slower and I don't hang around long enough for them.  I usually rattle about 5 minutes.

then I was to my honey hole.  4 years in a row...booner bucks rattled in.  One absolute phenomenal one, one non-typical one and lots in-between.  This year they logged right next to it and around it, so wasn't sure what would happen.  I got set up.  Not very many ot ops, but its in a real good spot, so maybe I need to take the pruners.  Slammed the antlers together for about 60 seconds then got ready.....nothing.  All of a sudden a nice, not monster, but very nice whitey came flying by from behind.  he obviously saw me and I saw him heading out of country.  CRAP!  I could have gotten a shot, but no chance for photos.  Just need more light or for the bugger to hold.  I rattled again for about 30 seconds.  Then heard a twig snap.  Right where they always come from.  I couldn't see anything.  I waited about 2 minutes the caught movement on the hill.  I grunted and he stopped.

look familiar?   I haven't compared pics yet from last year.  Looks like his face kind of but again I haven't compared.  It started snowing, so I headed back into muley country.  Nothng big, a nice 2 and another three point or two.  I then ran into a non-typical young buck.  I got some pics of him but havne't checked if they turned out.  It was almost dark.  They were taken about 100 yards from where I took the buck pics from the Peculiar thread.  I will post his pic there so as not to crowd this anymore.   I ran into very nice whitey on the way there.  He had alot longer tines than this uy and was more basket like.  I got the tripod up, but he didn't hold the 3 extra seconds I needed.   I sawa beautiful 4 point muley on the way out, down in the low country, but h was on the trail.  It was too dark for a moving target, so I just enjoyed his antlers.
