today on the way home on maple valley highway i seen a very nice buck. it was about 12" high and 3" out past the ears. big fork with early stages of a very big 4pt with eye guards
i wish i could have got my camera phone to zoom in close enough.

 Whereabouts? I saw a really good buck about a mile outside of town off of 18, looked to be at least a 3, with good mass but I was flying by at 70- ahem 55 mph .

My wife and I were at the Sisters bow shoot over the weekend. We went into Bend Friday to do some shopping. As we were dropping into Tumalo there was a HUGE four point muley laying alongside the road that had just got hit. It was probably 24 inches wide and at least 10 inches tall. It was a four point with eyeguards. The thing was a hog. It took out two Volvo's.

damn i have never yet seen a car on the side of the road after having hit a deer.

i did get to see my hunting buddies f350 after hitting on going over blewitt pass.  id much rather hit a car head on.

and jackelope...thats second on the list of things to get. 1st is a car

 Must be a secret backyard honey hole 

 Don't worry I don't hunt in folks backyards, someone would a camera should post a photo.


 I was just in Bend a week ago, also saw a decent buck down by the river not far from Tumalo. Good looking Country.

idk the roads, the one i seen was about 2 miles down the road from the town of maple valley

my dad seen a nice big 3pt the same day right in town by that little fruit stand

 Cool to see, there have been a couple around (from what I've heard not seen) that are over 20" and a lot of other nice bucks. Good to see they are doing well, as far as antler growth.

yeah i would love to be someone who lives right along that section of maple valley...

my dad use to hunt in that area back when he was my age and we have seen some monsters in that area. there is a good amount of area for them to stay hidden. and with no hunting pressure, cougars, bears (not that there arent any in that area) they dont have much to worry about besides cars.

The wife & I just got back from a little joy ride down to Long Beach. Just after we went by the sani can place traffic slowed way down. Somebody just in front of us had just smacked a dandy 4 point blacktail. It knocked one of its antlers off, it was laying in the middle of the road. What a waste!
