Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Deer Hunting How many members have killed good bucks on a general tag?

No draw/limited entry tags, no high fence bucks, general tags. Pics appreciated. 👍

Tags are a foreign thing to me. Never hunted out of state.

In MS you have bag limits. 3 bucks. 10 does ( i think)



Killed this one, this past season.
Good buck for me. I usually just shoot does. Cant eat the horns.

Damn nice diesel burner!! 👍

Outta all the states I apply for, I’ve drawn (1) buck permit/tag, and it’s my best muley.

Leupold/weatherby/Hornady spire point…. Gasp!!! Haha

I have drawn just one mule deer tag-in Idaho-the one year that I didn't put in for sheep there. Shot a mid sized buck.

Every other buck that I have shot (and every Rocky Mountain bull as well) has been on a general or unlimited tag, and that includes several that I consider "good". I normally put in for mule deer tags in 4-5 states every year....I used to put in for more states but decided that the general tags were good enough so now I just apply for a few certain tags in states near home and NM. I am getting out of the points game for states that I am not too invested in.

Haha for sure Ted. I’ve applied in Idaho for 22 ish years, elk bucks and antelope, and several bear , haven’t drawn a god damn thing. Got this year pretty planned out, so ill only apply for the very best. Every year before, just good tags.. no love

Nice!!!

Not bad Jud, not bad.

But I happened to have shot a reeeeally good buck on a general tag in MT this year. No big deal

It’s hard to tell just how good he is in this first picture:


Now I know what you’re thinking; “inside the ears, nice.” And how!? But in these next two, you can really see how good he is lol

Here he is as bulgogi


And tossed in with some homemade ramen for good measure



Yep. As you can see, I’m pretty much an expert at deer hunting (hoists up pants in triumph)

So when you see me popping off about deer hunting, y’all better point your ears

Haha for sure buddy!! I got a buncha dinks in the shop!! All made great cannin fare, steaks, pepperoni, sausage etc. I appreciate the fact you get er done and enjoy the table fare. Your big smile is noted as well. Your one of the gooduns. 👍👍

Haha

Great buck btw!

Same pics I have posted before...but what the hell....I am bored and I'd have to dig into my 35mms to get pics of my better whitetails as I haven't hunted them much since college.

All general season pubic land, and all solo DIY.

These are a bit younger age class than I would likely shoot these days.

I love you and your pics Ted, you keep interfering though. Shouldn't expect the folks I want to answer, cause they can't. 😁

Still could be a fun thread though.👍

I knew what you were getting at, and who you were targeting....but I like to wreck threads.

You should know that by now.

🙄😂

Hopefully this works...

All Washington bucks, all public land.

Hell yeah!

👍👍

Not sure what bulgogi is…

But it looks tasty.

Most of my Idaho muley bucks have been on OTC tags. This 1st one was 2 years ago. He was the biggest forky I've ever shot.




This one wasn't wide but it had good height.
