Title: #7 Columbian Blacktail Deer Non-Typical Wa
Post by: jdhansen92 on June 03, 2015, 07:00:52 PM: I got this buck from my grandpa, He bought it from the grandson of the guy that shot it. It has the metal deer tag and serial number, it was killed in 1955 on Ft. Lewis in Pierce County. The buck is #7 in Wa for Non-Typical, Im trying to find info on these old metal deer tags so I can confirm the story I was told any info would be greatly appreciated.

Post by: jeffitz on June 03, 2015, 08:36:00 PM: Awesome buck! That tag looks nice with paint on it, i knew Don Sowell Sr who has a typical top 5 Blacktail from 1950 and the tag on his buck was the same but rusty. He killed it in the Ryderwood unit

Amazing that no new entries in the top 10 since the early '60s. I guess that comes from adding 3 million people to the state population, with a (presumptive) increase in hunting pressure.

Post by: turbo on June 05, 2015, 07:06:47 AM: Nice. Reminds me of the 8x8 non-typical white tail buck I shot in Winthrop years ago. Mine was not real big but points all over. Pretty cool.
