By the way that is a solid buck!!! Great job to the hunter!!

Post by: andrew_12gauge on January 25, 2008, 09:34:47 PM: People, people, get this idea that there are deer near royal city out of your head. while there are a few in the desert unit consider it to be an island of deer in the middle of an ocean of no deer. Wastickslinger is right they dont exist around there

Post by: coyotekid on January 31, 2008, 05:26:10 PM: Hey, that's my buck! Sweet!

Coonhound, where did you get the pic? It spread around pretty around pretty quick over here (some people in Yakima even heard about it), but I had no idea that it would cross the mountains. Cool.

How do you guys think it scores? I haven't talked to the taxidermist in a while and he hadn't scored it at that time.
