sounds to me like you're the one that needs to be posting some pics  ;)

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Alec happens to be out of town for the week so it's going to be a while before we see them.

 Then, what is meant by "lowlands"? Private lands? I know of some NF lands and some private timberlands, I wouldn't necessarily call them low though. Let's see those pics.

Would love to see the pics! I lived/hunted in north Skagit County up until about a year ago. I have some pics of some blacktails under Suburban Blacktails in the photography section.

I had some pictures of those some bucks from the same area, but they unfortunately got deleted off the computer.  I still have a couple on my old cell phone, I dont know how to get them off there thou since it is deactivated?  There was a buck up there that was an absolute pig, but I believe he got shot.  Great place to go and take pictures.

We built a lot of houses in that area and I heard some rumors that some guys shot a couple of the big bucks one year off a lot that was getting cleared. I should of carried a camera more. Would of had a lot more pics.

This isn't the buck you're talking about is it Alec? I don't think he's a 10x13, but he's close. A friend emailed me these pictures. I guess this buck lives in the Yew St./Whatcom Falls area.

I've seen that sucker once or twice.  How recent are your pictures?  He wasn't quite that big when I last saw him.

Yeah, I saw a similar buck in the same general area in Bellingham 2 or 3 years ago.  I couldn't say for sure it is the same buck, but it sure looks pretty similar.  Not quite as big then though.

I never saw him, but I heard stories of a big buck coming out every morning this past summer where they were doing construction on the Guide.  Where they laid all that hay out for whatever reason, the buck would come out and feed right along the road.  I believe it was an 6x8 or something along those lines.  I only saw a two point and three point and a bunch of does in my commute all summer, but I definitely keep my eyes open whenever I drive through.
