Lots of deer seen this late season which I did not expect with the weather. I hunted the steepest hills I could find with 4 to 10 year old reprod. Deer were bedded down throughout every hillside I glassed. And moving around feeding all day on this hills. Seen 40+ deer

what do you call this one? 2x3? 3x4? 3x5?
Looks like a 2x4 to me, if I'm seeing all the points.

I agree BC, that is what I would call it however, the exercise here is toward those eye guards. people can count to allow this to be called a legal 3 on that 2 side (in this state if). I read the gen deer "A legal deer taken in these GMUs must have at least 3 antler points on one side. A 3x3, 3x2, or
3x1 are legal in a 3 pt. min. unit. Antler points must be at least one inch long measured from the longest side, including eye guards."

Never mind that's kind of confusing how it says at least 1 inch but says any visible antlers for any buck.
Yea it throws some people off. But a spike is perfectly legal with any visible antler length.

Bankwalker might wanna think about removing your post about 1/2" spikes. WA state law says all points must be at least an inch long.Visable antlers.

A trashy fork. Nice one too.

I got screwed out of this buck...watched him for over an hour waiting for a clean shot and someone else spooked him and decided to throw some lead his way :bash:

He'll be bigger next year Tom. Then you'll be glad you didn't get him this year.
