So i went scouting this weekend

[Woodchuck]

i will tell a little story and the get the pics up. my friend terry and i went to do some scouting, maybe see if we could find a bear. stopped at our jumping off point and while putting bino's on heard a bull bugle VERY CLOSE, decided bear was off for a while, lets go get a picture. while sneaking up heard another bull a little further off but very in-bound. decided to try to split the difference and headed for the center. got to a clearing in time to see the two bulls lock eyes and it was on. boys and girls if you have never seen it up close, my god that is LOUD. we watched em scrap it out for a little bit when the smaller bull's left antler breaks completely off! very cool folks. i will post pics, sorry about quality, POS camera

What an awesome experience! To be able to get the pics and the antler is pretty cool.

wish i had more to post, things were happening pretty fast, and to be totally honest there was little bit there i wasnt sure whether to *censored* or go blind. as soon as the antler broke off he was headed right at me and i got caught trying to sneak closer and had no cover, took the pic of him at about 15 yds, thought it was gonna get a little western for a minute

did that antler break off right at the base?
that bull looks like he just got his ass handed to him and it hurts like mad at the same time.

not asking where ur honey hole is just wondering...
