Title: Blue Mountain Buck
Post by: mtncook on February 03, 2014, 08:14:06 AM: I'm not one to post the real nice animals in my unit but it seems pretty slow here and wanted to generate some interest.
Yes the date is 2011 but he is still here and has had 3 years to cover does. You know better than to ask where except he is in my unit which all my cameras are.

Shed hunting will be hard this year. We have very little snow and the animals are still spread out. About 4 foot at the highest point where a heavy year will be 11-14 feet.

I know of 1 guy that made a solid effort at a big bull and went home empty. He's a member on here and his story is posted somewhere.
