Title: Masher Muley Killed
Post by: huntnphool on October 30, 2017, 09:44:27 AM
 I was sent a pic of a real masher of a buck killed by a gal last week.

I saw that posted on the Facebook so it must be true.

 Ugh, I'm not on FB but that may be where the info came from. I really hope she got it legally, stud of a buck!

Me too. Some comments were made that it looks like a tree farm in the background.  Doesn’t mean much I guess.

Tagging to see how this plays out, looks a lot like a certain tree farm that typically does not allow deer hunting.  Masher of a buck for sure though.

You guys seem to be able to derive a lot of info from a few trees!

something is not right with that photo.  It was not cold enough anywhere is Wa for a skull cap during modern deer, and I agree with the tree farm, but the leafs on the ground have been there a long time.  Most trees in E Washington are just now falling

Having hunted there in the past there aren't many places in the state like that.  Not 100% certain but definitely 95%.

Is it in the Columbia basin area? Those cotton wood pulp trees for paper.

Does the tag seem like it would be the same size and color as a Washington tag?  Last time I hunted there they were yellow.

He's dead. No more details. Great.

Anyone who remembers the last thread like this is either chuckling, or in a cold sweat. At least there's a picture of this one.

First thing I saw besides it being a giant deer, is the terrain looks more like blacktail country than mule deer.  But I am not much of a mule deer guy.

You talking about my post from Facebook? That was just a follow up to what I saw relative to the OP’s question. I haven’t felt the need to look at that thread in days. I screen shot it last week and showed a buddy. What else does the thread say now?

Well I will chime in, kirkle, I posted in a couple other threads and topics of "a different breed of hunter" out there today. Get the biggest and the best at all costs, if it means corking another hunter, walking in front of a fellow hunter or treading on posted property, or doing something that may cross the line  to be top dog, then so be it. Crack you up? I,m sorry,it happens every season, every unit, every drainage, and every so called "secret spot" and it gives us as hunters a "bad name" because of all the social media out there. I don't know if this was a legal kill or not, I will not judge. What I will put forth is that I,m sure you, myself and a lot of others on here do it right, we treat our kills with respect, we treat our sport with respect and we treat our fellow hunters with respect but unfortunately there are more and more of the "different breed" out there. I really hope this buck, hunter and story are on the up and up, if so its truly a trophy and an "honor" for the hunter to bring down such a buck. I would be the first to shake a hand..... :twocents:

I heard she is a vet, the deer is from a farm, and it's only tranquilized so she can float its teeth.

The picture and props were done to promote the farm.

I heard from a very reliable anonymous source that she shot this buck in Gig Harbor, with a laser cannon while strapped to a Russian drone remote controlled by a samsquantch. I heard CNN is moments away from breaking the story.

As always......

If someone doesn't have proof that this animal was taken illegally, then you shouldn't start nasty rumors.   

If this turns out to be a legal kill, then it will be just one more reason people are hesitant to post pics.

On a slightly more serious note and taking nothing away from this buck but pictures sure give it a different look and size (again not saying anything bad about this buck) but the pic posted and the pic on facebook (in the comments) sure show how perspective can change.

Everyone on here wants pics of bucks killed and yet after all these years everyone still jumps on a big buck killed with stupid comments. Jesus, if you don't have facts shut up. It's a monster WA buck, enjoy it for that and move on. I'd love for me to be the one holding that buck and have someone post it up without my permission and then have all my Hunt-Wa friends doubt me and talk **** about it.

It's an awesome buck. The whole public/private thing is absurd and only getting worse...there's state land, there's state land that's leased (including access), there's "landlocked" state land that you'd have to trespass to get to, etc. God bless our National Forests!!
