Big Blacktail

Saw this guy this morning, about a mile from my house.  He was with two other decent size bucks as well.   Check out how tall the rack is.

It's a horrible picture, but gives you an idea of how big he is.  With so much construction going on, I can't believe they were there.

He is tall! What was he ? 4 point?

[snohohunter]

5x4.  For the other two, it was a 2x2 and a 2x3.  The 2x3 will be a non-typical if he lives long enough.  His rack was all messed up. lol

Of course, I had a cheap digital in my truck and couldn't get a close up without it being blurry.  I'm going to start watching the area more and see if i can get some good shots with my SLR. 

It definitely made my morning.

Of course not....it's county property.  The area is completely fenced in - the tall fence with barb-wire on top.  Not sure if the bucks can get in and out, other than through their gate.

man that sucks.

but of course they are always the biggest where we cant hunt them.
