hogsniper... were you in winter camo near Chelan? A bachelor group of three?

I think I may have been taking photos of the same buck. :)

Great photo either way!

I am not opposed to golf, for I suspect it keeps armies of the unworthy from discovering deer.

When some of our native friends shoot him, we can have them measure him for us.  I'd go 27 with that back stickie fork.  Gorgeous animal....that chest is AWESOME.

I was thinking that his body is so big, it's making the antlers look smaller than they are.  That's a big animal.

By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

I'm guessing this buck wasnt right on the road or he would be dead already.

I looked this buck over really well and thought he would go right at 28.  The tribe is hunting the area hard so Im pulling for this guy!!! He was in a hard to reach place but was still only about 300 yds from a crappy road!  These are the crappy cell pics i have and will post more tomorrow when I get my camera back!   

Hirshey that wasnt me.   Great bucks you found also!

I've got a Buck on the wall that has the same spread as that Buck. 26 3/4" is about what it is. ;)

"the tribe is hunting the area hard".

Come on buddy that doesn't make any sense.  Three hundred yards off the road would be a tough shot using a pawned 30-06 after a case of Keystone Light!  :yike: ........
I think he will make it to see another season.
