Hey merriammagician is that buck in the first picture you posted missing his left eye? Sure looks like blood on his cheek, and that eye looks a little different.

I never really noticed that before, but it does kind of look that way. The amazing thing about that pic is that I came over a sand dune and he was just bedded 20 feet away. He got to his feet and just stared at me for over 5 minutes. Then he slowly just meandered off.

By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Heres my 2006 desert buck. Definitely not the buck I wanted but he is respectable. I was still pretty young on that hunt and after 8 straight days of early mornings and hiking 5 - 12 miles every day, I settled for him. There were 6 or 7 better ones that I passed on the first few days.

Here is a Desert buck I passed on.
feature=relmfu
If you haven't hunted this unit before it has to be one of the hardest. It looks like a bunch of sage, however it's all about five feet tall. The deer take a few steps and just disappear

RaffleMule, that was a giant! Bet he was hard to pass up on. You ended up with one bigger, right?

It wasn't too hard to pass because at this point in the hunt I was still convinced I was going to see a 200'.....
The deer was only at 100 yds so I was set up on my shooting sticks right next to my H.S. buddy who was filming it. The deer was in the crosshairs for a short period of time.
I think the deer I shot is bigger, I guess it depends on how big you think that deer is. I know mine is wider and has more mass but the fronts on that deer were huge.
I got lucky on the deer hunt and shot the biggest deer I saw......can't say the same for elk.
Just the way it goes if you want to hold out for a "holy sh*t" animal.
