Which trophy deer would you prefer to shoot?
« on: November 09, 2010, 06:56:07 AM »
tough to pass on voting for the trophy mule deer but any blacktail hunter knows the hardest thing to kill period, is a trophy class blacktail.

Thats too close. I love the blackys I'm seeing this year but is there anything more magnificent than a huge trophy Muley? Whity's are boring.

I have a trophy Blacktail and a trophy Mule deer so I would have to say a trophy Whitetail is the only choice I have left.  ;)

I just think that a trophy mule deer is the coolest looking deer around.  So I want one hanging on my wall.

trophy black tail is the hardest one to get but there's no trophy deer that looks better to me than a big mulie.

I cant believe this i honestly beleived that the blacktail would kick butt over any other deer type,beings it is the hardest animal in north america to hunt, there is no critter that holds a candle to the gray ghost
my grandpa always said "if it aint broke dont fix it"

I voted for the blktail buck. I have shot all 3 of them, but a world record blktail to me would be awesome. There is just something mysterious about the animal...  :twocents:
