Man awesome pictures, but Ive got to ask where are you finding bucks like that to take pics of in Washington?
These pics. are taken in south eastern Oregon. I live in Burns and I take pictures in the Malhuer Refuge and central and eastern Oregon. Thanks for all the kind words. If you guys keep liking them, I'll keep posting them.

Great timing to get great pictures!!! Did you shoot a continuous series to get them right at the jump? Are you shooting Canon? If so, I could offer my RAW conversion methods.

I'm shooting a Nikon D300, I've talked with shawn and he is going to help me get started with the raw files. Thanks for the offer. As far as the shots go, I shoot a single frame at a time. Just got a fast finger.

These pictures are taken on the refuge where they are safe from human hunters. At the time the bucks were rutting pretty hard with does on both sides of the fence.

that does it i was in oregon last week for thanksgiving and i picked up the regs im applying for a rifle tag an buying a bow tag this year, i just gotta know though is the malhuer refuge open to bowhuntingINFO
Malheur National Wildlife Refuge was established on August 18, 1908 by President Theodore Roosevelt as the Lake Malheur Bird Reservation. Roosevelt set aside unclaimed lands encompassed by Malheur, Mud and Harney Lakes “as a preserve and breeding ground for native birds.” The newly established “Lake Malheur Bird Reservation” was the 19th of 51 wildlife refuges created by Roosevelt during his tenure as president. At the time, Malheur was the third refuge in Oregon and one of only six refuges west of the Mississippi.
