Yet another blacktail down...
This weather is awesome! I'm not much of a story teller. He was rutting hard and chasing a doe accross a unit I was watching. Two shots on the move at about 160 yards.
He's not the biggest by any means, but definately my best Blacktail to date.
Is a 3x4 with a decent brow tine and a ton of little trash all around his bases. I should have passed and let him go another year to be a big boy, but am very happy to have a deer hanging for some more meat in the freezer.

Re: Yet another blacktail down...
Probably a three or four year old buck, it was time to eat him!

Re: Yet another blacktail down...
Thanks for all the praise guys. Next goal is bigger, or by bow. Either accomplishment will work for me!

Trophy is in the eye of the beholder and not some record book. Great looking buck. Looks like some good eating.

Congrats! I would rather put meat in the freezer than have tag soup for dinner.

Uhm, would you be sad if I told you I drug it a total of 10 feet? The unit that I hiked into was all private, and I had the ability to drive in to recover the animal.

Re: Yet another blacktail down...
Nope, wouldn't be sad at all. Heck, 10 feet is 3 times as far as I had to drag my buck.

Nice. Man I'm stoked to see some nice bucks going down this year. Every night when I get home from work I hop on to see who shot what today!
I hate blacktails, but I love them!
