El Dorado County??

Some yes, friends or neighbor’s yards, others Sac county along the American river trail system where they will never be hunted. Theres so many giant blacktails its ridiculous and even where they can get hunted, being killed is extremely rare. Ghosts…. And they know which houses feed them / are friendly.

The biggest blacktail I ever saw was along the sac river right outside of Princeton. Orchards all around and the thick jungle to hide in. Those river bucks and park bucks are ridiculous.

I always love seeing big CA deer, it gives me that much more motivation knowing what's out there

I hike and drive long distances to see bucks smaller than some of those blacktails. Not all of their genetics are bad, and when allowed to grow old, they can get insanely huge. Saw one last year chasing does in the rut that would easily top the world record. But being east of 5 fwy, they will never get recognized. Actually curious how genetically different they are from coastal blacktails. Body sizes are night and day different, but actual genetics interests me.

Shared that pic in another thread but hes a monster. Earlier pics of him were last year. Just a freak and lives in a garden paradise lol.

Set off the motion lights/camera one too many times - then made the mistake of showing up during daylight.

Gotta buddy in Paradise, CA that’s constantly sending me pics of insanely big deer like this. I’ve hunted with my dad in CA it’s crazy how they disappear when youve got a tag in pocket.. I posted this one awhile back too..
