Shucks - guess that means we still have a while to wait 'till we can photograph whitetails with impressive antlers.

Post by: TeacherMan on May 31, 2009, 10:21:50 AM: No pics but about a mile south of Colville this week I saw a nice little bachelor group of bucks, four, one was already working on his fourth point. He was almost going straight out. He will be a nice buck.
Title: Re: Lets see the Velvet
Post by: shoot-em-dead on May 31, 2009, 10:33:25 AM: I don't have a camera but it looks like I am going to have to steal my wife's for a few days. At work the other day, one of the guys points out a buck so I went up to look. He is a mule deer and a perfect 5x5. Already has at least a 20 inch spread and is about as tall. The owner of the land has made it clear that there will be no hunting because it caused problems with the neighbor last year. I'll try and get some pics.

Thanks, Tom. I got a chance to spend a few days down on the Malheur before starting work on Monday (finally employed again) and got a few buck pics. There are going to be some good bucks this year, although I haven't seen any eye-poppers yet. Mostly the deer were uncooperative though and I got a bunch of bird pics.

This guy wasn't quite as far along as some of the others in antler development, but he was closer!

The first buck is a 3pt blacktail with eyeguards. it was real low light and through the bino's. the picture doesnt do him a justice.

The second buck is a 3pt mulie just outside of town.

The last buck has been running around our place this year.

Reminds me of Yellowstone's "old days" back in the mid 90's when there were lots of big bulls right out in the open along the roads. There's been precious little of that in the past 10 years.

Um.... are you from "back East"? Looks like a fork horn / 2 pt. to me.

Not West of the Mississippi (too much counting for us... :chuckle: :chuckle:)

No problem. Counting all the points is an "east of the Mississippi" thing. Here in the west we generally count only the points on one main beam for mulies (not counting eyeguards), and only the points on one side (including eyeguards) for whitetails.

For example: THis is a 4 point mulie

Post by: javman on July 24, 2009, 07:32:07 PM: This was from last summer. I spent all of last deer season holding out for him... nicknamed him "Brutus", one of the biggest blacktails I've seen in the wild. Haven't gone looking for him yet this summer. Hopefully he survived and I'll find him again!

Title: Re: Lets see the Velvet
Post by: javman on July 24, 2009, 07:47:35 PM: Will do soon ;) I'm gonna pick up a couple trail cams from my elk spot this weekend and move 'em to my deer spot next weekend.

This is his brother, "Bruno" (I think I posted a pic of him last year)... I was so intent on finding Brutus I didn't think I could shoot Bruno if I saw him. Sure enough I saw Bruno during season, but he was gone so fast I didn't even have a chance to contemplate dropping him. This year, he's fair game. His rack was nice and dark in October.

Am I the only person that names the deer I'm chasing? :chuckle:

I meant a few bucks, but I do have more pics, in fact I took over 500 shots over the weekend. Its just too hot to sit at the computer and edit them right now. Here's a few more.
