Once again, congratulations to the hunter. I just got a call from a guy my son played ball with down in Oklahoma wanting to know if it was one of our bunch! Oklahoma!!!! Man, loose lips ring a bell?🤣 I feel sorry for anybody that hunts within a 10 mile radius of where this buck was killed, start making reservations or put up your dummy camps as soon as the snow melts. Oklahoma!!!!!!!!

No worries, that place will be a ghost town next year.  Everyone I talk to say this was the last monarch to exist in the methow.  People will move on to greener pastures as there are clearly no more deer in that valley.

I was told a bigger deer was killed opening day

Once again, loose lips. There are some who ask questions, there are some who ask “specific” questions.

I haven’t seen any OnX maps posted yet.  Don’t get me wrong…..I hate the internet as it pertains to most things and especially believe it is what has given antis traction to destroy our hunting……but every year someone gets a great buck and pics get posted!!  I have yet to see a mass migration to those grounds by other hunters hoping to find its brother. 

Am I that naive to think most people aren’t going to change their hunting camp because this pic got posted??

I was wondering how long it would take for this buck to pop up on here. Actually took a lot longer than I figured. Hell of a buck!

No. Most people won’t move their camps to the methow next year as a result of this buck.
There are quality animals killed in Washington every year that get posted all over social media. The pics that get posted here pale in comparison to the pics posted on Facebook and Instagram anymore. I don’t believe those photos cause any kind of camp migration. Maybe they’ll cause increases in special permit applications but not general season changes.

I have a photo of it on the hood of the green Jeep but will wait to see if the shooter is on here and cares if it's posted.  Hunting partners and I were in the same area when it was taken.  Heavy horned stud.

I heard a giant came out of the 290, 200"er. Was that your dad by chance? I have not seen any pics.

Unfortunately, no not yet, he's spent a week there each month.  I'm heading back with him the 1-17th so hopefully something turns up.  Will keep an eye out for photos.

He'd be happy with one on this post for sure.  We got to see it at the guy's camp and was pretty amazing.
Take one new person out hunting every year.

It is a small world when you think about it.

Another stud buck taken out of the Methow.

There have been many, yet with current situations, it makes them fewer and fewer.

A trophy of a lifetime.  :tup:
