Saw him again
« on: October 31, 2012, 09:59:24 AM »
THis buck was the cover of my first calender two years ago.   I figured when I didn't see him last year, he was dead.   They were logging where he was at and I figured hed end up in the back of one of their trucks........about 200 yards from where I took this pic.....I ran into him yesterday.   I got a really cool shot of hiim which will more than likely be in this years calender.   


Here he was two years ago....remember him?

Thanks guys...remember this is two year ago.   I am thrilled that this might be the same buck.  and OH YES, he has a target on his chest!   He survived modern again, and now has to face archery plus I caught a poacher yesterday less than a mile away.  a different story.

I think that is really neat that you follow the wildlife in your area like that.

Caught him working this rub over.....in fact, I might not have seen him if not for the rub, as its what I spotted first as it was pretty dark and he blended in pretty well.
