nice, theres some PIG! deer back in there most people just roadhunt or watch cuts there though, you gotta go deep most of the time to get deer of that caliber.

A blacktail of this caliber should outdo any other buck. Those are awesome deer. When I first saw the picture I thought they were huge whitetails
