But anyway, does anyone know the story of the deer antlers hanging behind the bar? The lady I asked last year didn't know, but they definitely came from a bruiser buck. If I remember correctly, the point count is at least 7X8. The thing looks like a mulie, but the horns are dark like a blacktail.
Just curious if anyone's seen it and knows the story.

just maybe, the great, great, great grandchild of that buck is still out there!
Oh.. The biggest Blacktail I've ever seen killed came from down south between Adams and Saint Helens. Still a good gene pool there.

I know the guy really well who use to own the logs, and a lot of those horns are his that he left when they sold the place I will call him in the morning and get the story on the big one behind the bar.
That'd be awesome if you could. I've eaten there a couple times drooling into my food instead of eating it staring at that rack. :drool:
I've hunted that area my entire life and have seen many quality bucks, but nothing like the monster behind the counter.

Went to The Logs this last week and found out its under new management, and all the buck racks and antlers are gone, including the monster set. The gal serving us said some bar from Portland bought a lot of the decor from the old owners.
Oh well. Kind of hoped to get a picture of it this time.

That is freaking terrible! I'd be interested in what story the Oregon bar comes up with. :chuckle: :dunno:
The two bigger ones I recall, were local kills prior to the 80's, but many would say they are benchlegs. -Still blacktails, but I bet dna would say Muley cross. I've seen some big blacktails down that way long before we all carried digital cameras. (TroutLake over to Four Corners and between the lava beds and around Indian Heavens.) few and far between though. The bucks of Lewis and Skamania county prefer to be hobits and go under ground after August... ;)

Some of you guys said the racks are still there? I didn't see any. Maybe I missed them? :dunno:
Hairtrigger, you say there's a monster at the restaurant in Glenwood. Well shoot. Guess I'm going to have to head back up there. :chuckle:

That Bull at the Mt. Inn was taken by a Native. I could find out all the info if you want me to, I know the owners pretty well.
Yeah, any information on big bulls is always interesting.
