Title: Drop tine Blacktail
Post by: Sitka_Blacktail on August 07, 2018, 09:03:06 PM
Here's something you don't see every day, a drop tined blacktail. A friend of mine shot it about 10-12 years ago.  The story was, he had a 4x4 spotted and was trying to get in position for a shot and this deer was in his way.  He waited over a half hour trying to see if he could get by this buck for a shot at the other buck, then finally took this one. He initially passed on this one because it wasn't that big and not near as big as the 4x4.  I told him I'd have taken this one in a heart beat just because this is a rarity. He said "Yah, I thought about it and asked myself how many drop tined blacktails I've seen and the answer was zero". So then he changed his mind.

Nice!  His double drop must be even more rare.  A goofy rack all the way around but I couldn't imagine passing on this guy unless the other buck was an absolute book buck trophy.
