My only deer so far. Pretty happy with this one though. We hunt mostly for elk and this one just happened to pop up when I had a deer tag in my pocket. Grand Mesa - 2009.

Here's mine from last fall. Fun hunt. This buck was with a doe and showing off for her. First week of November. He had good genetics, but young. I didn't regret shooting, it was the only shot I took at a big game animal last year with a firearm.

2011 was a fun year of hunting. My sister did a guided hunt with Pat Sinclair and shot a 16" pronghorn, this mule deer, and an elk in 3 days of hunting. That year I'd drawn an eastern MT elk permit, and jumped this buck while hunting public land. I didn't shoot, and ended up tracking him in a skiff of snow for almost a mile before getting a 2nd chance. He caught up with a group of does and decided to chill out. Not an old buck, just a smidge under 180, really had some potential, and scored well for how young and light antlered. Fun day of hunting.

Here's a couple really nice MT public land bucks in the 190 +/- range.
The one in the open made B&C awards book.

These are from public land in Wyoming, the one with the stickers at the bases grossed 188, and the other 192. A friend from WY first spotted the 190+ the day prior to season and we both thought he was in the 170s and wanted to look further, so we hiked several miles past him and camped. I had a really nice antelope found that year in WY ( and the season opened in 5 days), and late in the day of the deer opener, I mentioned I'd like to go back and try to find that 170s buck again. He was bigger than we thought. Even though I spent 3 full days before the antelope opener of looking for the buck I was rushed on the deer hunt for.. I never found him.

This is my biggest, oldest buck. If he matched up, he would have scored 200. He grossed 194 and netted in the mid-180s. Private land, limited quota permit, and the rancher actually phoned me - telling me about this buck on his place before I headed over there to hunt. As easy as it was, I do have him in my trophy room as a European mount. He's got a cool gigantic noggin, very old, high mountain buck - taken on winter range.

My son shot this whitetail buck last year. He's pretty good with a rifle, it was running, and not exactly close. And the wt he took the year prior on his grandfather's place, not long before he passed away.
