i'll hazard a solid  guess that there's several miles in between the road kill buck's former residence and the buck that got killed by the lucky hunter.

Here's a couple more pics. I'm pretty sure his dad is a member here. Hopefully a story will pop up.

Great buck. 8)
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

I know it is pretty far, 15 miles or so but check it out. Pretty cool how similar they are. Hopefully he spread his seed!!

15 miles isn't nothing to migrating mule deer, could have easily spread the genes..

That is right, the roadkill buck was more than likely on his way to winter range.  That was an awesome buck also.  Anyone in the know have an idea where that rack ended up?

That road killed buck was already in his winter range!
