I've got 7 BT well over 100"    :chuckle:  One scores 140 and is just a 3 pointer!!   :tup:

Settle down there, just kidden around. :)

I know.... 100" BT isn't that hard..... 110 plus get's a little challenging....  :chuckle:

You'll note that blacktails weren't even worthy to be put in the title of this thread.   Guess cause a Jackelope sized deer really isn't that impressive no matter what.

I'll just have to kill twice as many in California I guess...

lol true that, but can find 3x amount of mule deer sheds to Blacktail in all that open country.
When you see the third, thin the herd.
Right now I'm somewhere picking up sheds.

I think there are some open grassy hillsides in California from some ATL pics I've seen.   Give me a year or two to figure things out, and I'll show you what a pack full of California blacktail sheds look like.  ;)

Those Cali BT bucks are big too, get it figured out Miles then pm me  :chuckle: to the OP I'd have to say Mulies would be toughest, just my opinion.  Seems I see more pics of big Whitetails on this site than muledeer, think Bone single handedly keeps them in balance with all his Mulies pics.
