Shane, what is yours looking like now? Still in velvet? What kind of mount are you doing?

Is this a threadjack or can we discuss something while we wait for pics of this big ghost?  :dunno:

For now I had Kyle Haan of KH Horn Mounts in Lynden strip the velvet and stain the horns and do a leather horn mount for them.  I am getting the cape tanned and will probably mount in the future but need to save some money first.  (Don't really have anywhere in the house to put him which is why I say probably...)

Depending how it scores with velvet off he should be top 5 (western blacktail) with a bow in WA. 

Here's some photos:

The state record now is the world record Columbian blacktail so, it'll be more than just a state record if it's true!
Title: Re: new state record blacktail?
Post by: 7mag. on October 21, 2015, 05:50:55 PM
The current first and second Blacktails in the world are big enough to be Boone and Crockett Muledeer. I highly doubt that a new record was shot opening weekend, but it would be very cool.

Shane, I know full mounts are cool, but the leather work done on your board mount looks awesome with those dark antlers!

Shane, could you let me know the spread?  We've been watching this fella, and with ears out they're just inside.

Spread was only 18" on mine.

Thank you for sharing that buck

The State record is the world record Columbia blacktail, so I ain't buying it.

Maybe they are talking state record for archery or black powder.

I have heard some people use "state record" to mean it meets min quals for the state book so without a pic I am not too excited.

I agree. 125 is much different than 184.

I disagree. I think it's too small a world for someone to not know something about it if it actually happened.
I'm gonna bet it didn't happen.

Post by: fishngamereaper on October 22, 2015, 11:40:05 AM
Doesn't look like Washington. Unless it something else the tag is affixed to the deers antlers and is not a Washington tag. But I could be wrong, has happened before.

Shane that's a fantastic buck and I'm not trying to diminish it but you do know that's not where your base credit is measured right? And I'm curious? Why would you strip the velvet?

Do you have some mass measurements on that thing ? I have a mid 180s typical muledeer with deeper forks so just trying to wrap my head around this lol

That thing is a tank. Crazy mass all of the way!

😂

It’s seriously nice but I’d guess 155” with the shallow forks.

Post by: LDennis24 on May 25, 2024, 10:08:12 PM
There are more pics of it in his profile. It's only about 26 inches wide from the pic with a tape. That's still amazing for a blacktail. It's just not that big to go 180".  :dunno:
Title: Re: new state record blacktail?
Post by: HntnFsh on May 26, 2024, 07:36:17 AM
I dont care what it scores. Its an incredible buck!

Only about 26" wide.. :chuckle:  I would take that. He says 28 1/2"  :dunno: But whos quibling over a couple inches when they get in the upper 20s on a blacktail. Im always impressed when they get over 18"
