He’s not the one I’ve been after since the season opened, but he’s a fine little buck and I’m glad to have him.

Those gaiters I wearing are to keep those darned tiny burrs out of my boot laces, socks and pant legs. They work pretty well!

Any 4x4 blacktail is a keeper. Good job. I've been working on the same one for a week and a half and have seen him twice. Come close. Going to hit him hard the next few days.

Fireball2, the one I was really after is a toad. I watched him and a companion buck during the summer of 19 grow their antlers. I would catch them at day break as they left the ag fields and slipped into the timber.
When they shed their velvet, they left the ag and disappeared...... I found another buck and finally got him mid season last year.
So we’ve been seeing them off and on again this year, but sporadically. The area they live in is a nightmare to hunt. You can’t still hunt it - way to noisy and steep. You can see into quite a bit of it, but from almost 500 yards away.
I had him at 325 yards on opening day and the shot just never happened - and I haven’t been able to get eyes on him since. I have a shed from one of the two bucks and if the other side is a match, he’ll be around 150” BC.
I’ve been passing up a lot of forks and three points in hopes of a gift...... that’s how I look at today’s buck.
I’m pleased to have him and have no regrets. Now I can work on that cow elk tag!

Good luck with your quest!

Nice buck, Congratulations!


I am continually astounded at how quickly people make up their minds on little evidence or none at all.

Nice deer, congratulations on a fine deer.
Looks like you and your 6.5 gave that deer a nice dirt nap.
