Congrats to a great deer, Very nice bow kill

Lets just call him a cascade mulacktail. And their not very smart, even I've shot a couple of them.   Great buck Ric! Looks like you had a great year with your bow. I think I can tell what your boys thinking looking at his feet like that. " Uh dad, a little help here."

Exactly.  This Cascade region BT/MD debate is getting old.  That's a great deer.  Well done.

well this will get thread jacked pretty quick, i agree but it is a important distinction to make between the two. i hunt pure blacktails and the big buck i shot this year is no comparison to a big buck like hoggsniper's but when measured against other blacktails he's a hog. it all really matters very little how one deer stacks up to another but theres a difference between the species.

very nice buck. ...........

[Elkstuffer]

Thanks for all the kind words. This was probably  one of my best hunting season ever taking a buck and a bull with my bow. Hopefully I can repeat next year and add a pronghorn to the mix. Thanks again.

good luck with the antelope ive been trying for 9 years and now that oregon is 140 bucks for a license i think they can have them. awesome buck and who cares if it is east of the crest trail. regardless it is a hell of an accomplishment you earned it. and the best part you shared it with your son. keep up the good work.

Great buck! I've seen the picture of the tail.  At least 80% BT, amazing for that far east.
