Can Ya Spot the Buck?
« on: July 03, 2018, 01:21:44 AM »
Can you see the blacktail buck in this photo. He is a dandy of a 2 point at the time of the photo (June 28).

The answer is down lower on this page now. So if you want to look for him without a spoiler dont scroll down  :chuckle:

 :chuckle: Yea, if I haddnt seen him up and about first, then I dont know if I would have ever seen him. He was in an ideal bedding spot. a knoll behind him. the breeze coming from behind him, and a clear open view out across the clearcut in front of him.

How far away was this and how much was your spotter zoomed in?

Probably about 200 yards. The picture is actually through one side of my binos. Forgot the spotter at home. The binos are 12X.
