Halloween Buck
« on: November 01, 2011, 05:37:00 PM »
 Found this guy tucked in the brush on the way home this evening, I was actually glad I had the 500mm as all I could see well was his head at close range.

How big a hole does a 500mm leave in them? :chuckle:

 Don't I wish :chuckle:. I'll have to settle for a photo-paper wall mount.

 I see deer just about every week on this route home, but have been waiting for the bigger buck's to show up that I really only see during the rut. I saw this guy and another 3 point I haven't seen before tonight for the first time, both scent marking and thrashing around the brush, one was chasing a doe really hard...
