Title: Regrets
Post by: boneaddict on November 19, 2022, 06:08:49 PM
Always look bigger from behind right?   lol   I only had 45 minutes of light left.  He was with 17 does and a 3/4 of a mile hike to get to him. I figured there was no way I could beat that many eyes and ears.  i chose to go after him in the morning.   

I did and he was gone.

I’d have any tagged him.  I don’t do the Texas heart shot thing, but I tell you what, if he any angled me out to 500, with tag in hand, BANG.

From that angle the antlers look bigger than any I've ever seen. Simply incredible

Post by: boneaddict on November 22, 2022, 08:06:44 AM
I started trying to get a different angle for you.  He went out to about 500 and frolicked around.   Pretty blurry and far away.   Then I fell asleep. Lol.

Is it coming off the main beam between the g1 and g2? That’s super unique can’t think of another deer I’ve ever seen that on

If it was what kept him out of Boone, would you break it off? :chuckle:

 :chuckle:  No, no, I meant I fell asleep while looking at photos trying to get a different angle for you posted.  I assure you, not even I would fall asleep watching this beast. 

Again, sorry for the poor photos.  500 yards out, lots of mirage.   He had 17 ladies with him if I recall correctly.  I'm sure there will be some genes of this guy out there for future generations.

My guess is he has broke off a point or two, but bottom line, pretty good set of antlers

Man Bone, i sure have been enjoying your pictures this year!
How many days do you spend out in the field taking pictures? I would love to sit around a campfire and listen to some of your stories and experiences from the past!
Title: Re: Regrets
Post by: boneaddict on November 23, 2022, 10:21:41 AM
Thank you Sneaky!   This year I had 14 days off over 3 weeks.  I made use of 13 of them.  In the old days I’d take almost a month off, but probably still only film about 20 days.  I need to do more campfire sitting.  That sounds nice.
