This was the big boy but hard to tell the huge mass 4x3 a dandy blacktail
This is a 3x3
a 3x2 that was not happy he was walking... old swollen sack
I need a better zoom ... these were taken 20 yards and in and still hard to show the beasts properly.

Find a doe in heat and she brings the boys running. She had all three of these deer interested. We have seen as many as 7 bucks after one doe.

Ok, I'll ask it. Where was the exact location? I just want to do a little research. At least around what time was it as I saw a little flash reflection in the eyes? Reason I ask is that I thought NW Trek was opposed to using flash when taking pictures.

Lets see the gps coodinates are... naw can't do it. Already hard getting good pictures without adding more pressure. I did see olympus advertising a 10x zoom digital. Now that sounds interesting.

Why don't you have a contest to see who can guess where you were. Oh wait I guess I win because I know. I think I shot my deer almost on that same road but I took a left and you went straight up past your inlaws. Straight up and then another left past the cabin.

Several years ago while sitting on a stand just before dark I watched a doe and a spike run out into a grassy area just below me. She stopped and the lil'guy climbed right aboard ......nice sight picture between her ears to his head......just couldn't pull the trigger ....wouldn't have been cricket .

Actually you need to be careful around these bucks.. they will attack if they think you want there girlfriend. Snort and stomp etc... it will wake you up when one does that.

Nice bucks, Speaking of muzzleloading, where are some good, public free places to hunt around the Yelm area? I've never ML the west side and haven't been out yet this year. This is my first post and any recommendations are greatly appreciated.
