17 point whitetail
« on: March 07, 2011, 07:02:09 PM »
I just came across some pictures of a buck my buddy shot last archery season. It was one we knew well, have  2 years worth of trailcam pics of this deer.  Nine scorable points on one side, Eight on the other. I dont think it has been officially scored, but is 150ish. Oh, did I mention this was his archery kill ever. Lucky SOB.

yes, that is a washington buck.  I'll try to post some trailcam pics from 2009 and 2010. Its amazing the increase of antler size in one year. He was a regular at our mineral and feeding sites. I believe he may have only been 3 1/2 years old too.

He does look young, and if he put on a lot of antler from 09 to 2010 I bet he was..

Here he is in in 2009. He had 6 points per side, counting the split eyeguards. which he broke off later.
