Havent been able to make it over to my spot much this spring for benchleg sheds but was able to get a few.

Damn, so many sheds, so little time. Maybe next year I will be able to follow in all of your footsteps.
Awesome finds!

Sweet finds!!!!!!!!!!

Those look like pure blacktail sheds.
-
Yeah they do look like pure blacktail but they come from around Glenwood. And as Far as I no there Considerd to be the "Casecade Blacktail" or benchlegs in that area?? :dunno: :dunno:
-
Yeah those deer are still a mule deer/blacktail cross from what I've seen. While most have way more blacktail characteristics, I saw a doe last week in the White Salmon drainage that had so little black on her tail you would have thought she belonged in the desert. I agree though, those horns do look very blacktail.
-
When I think of a blacktail shed I visualize Dark antlers and big eyeguards. What about you guys what characteristics do you see in blacktail antlers?
-
Okay, gotcha. That area is tough, because the benchlegs we have in the Yakima area tend to look a little bit different than those. The deer in the area where you found those I think tend to show more blacktail characteristics than muley characteristics, whereas, the Yakima area deer show more muley characteristics in my opinion.
