He's have a huge gross score but I don't think he'd net very well. We've got some giant whitetails in this state but don't tell anyone.

dumb question here being from the wetside and only know blacktail, is that a whitetail or muley? he seems to have one main beam but it forks at the end. i would imagine its a huge buck for either muley or whitey :dunno: :tup: stud none the less
An extrememly nice whitetail. He is a trophy to almost all but the scorebook. His uniqueness is second to none, he is a mature whitetail buck. He lacks tine length(except his eyeguards) and symmetry, but holy moly, what a deer.

And a perfect example of why so many are using SCI these days. :tup:dumb question here being from the wetside and only know blacktail, is that a whitetail or muley? he seems to have one main beam but it forks at the end. i would imagine its a huge buck for either muley or whitey :dunno: :tup: stud none the less

I have to admit, I never really studied SCI. I always thought that was more for Africa stuff. Raised on Boone and then Pope, but now, I really don't think much of any of them. I used to really be into measuring, but not so much anymore.SCI is pretty simple, if the buck grows it it gets credit for it.

That makes sense to me. I've often thought an "immersion" measurement would be valuable to measure the actual cubic inches of bone grown by the animal above the pedicel. Be tough to do, though.

A Displacement method would be great, it would also eliminate that ridiculous spread credit. :tup:SCI is pretty simple, if the buck grows it it gets credit for it.

Its funny you joke about 12 years ago, as I saw a buck much like that about 15 years ago also in the Colville. He was a bit bigger, and both mains were the ones that dropped like this one. He is the one that caused the big bloody fight scene I posted on here a couple years ago. That's the closest likeness I have seen of him. Thank you for sharing.
What is the bloody fight scene you posted?

I'd like to know the true story on this buck. This is the third different pic of what I believe to be the same buck. He might just be a WA buck.He is a Washington buck.

looks kinda like these sheds.
Are those WA sheds? They look similar to a different set of sheds that I saw from the Res.

Yes WA sheds, pics don't even do them justice, incredible is all I could say when they were in my hands. Elkslayer had some pics posted of them as well.

it looks like he has a wound on his back, probably a damn wolf :yike: what a hog :tup:
That's probably just a tuft of fur that got nipped by another deer or "cowlicked" by a branch. Eastside deer get extremely thick winter coats and you see that alot.
What an amazing buck. I'm personally glad that Washington has such little notoriety for it's whitetail population. So much public land, so few out of state interests :tup:
