Those antlers (and bears!)are growing! Only 18 days til the hunt!
« on: July 02, 2011, 05:34:00 PM »
Took these on the way to work yesterday. Nice buck with several more weeks of growing left! I am blessed to see animals like this almost every day. Now if the state would just send me a deer tag!!!!

I know that the draw system is helping our deer come back, but it is painful not to be able to chase these boys in the fall!

Thanks for the great pics! Mule deer are my favorite to hunt, and I can't wait for season.

You have no OTC areas in Colorado?

Wow, I knew there was no non-res OTC tags, but no resident either? I feel fortunate living here, but there are many areas here that need to be on a draw basis because of dwindling deer numbers.

Elksong, those are great pics!  I love hunting muleys as well.  I had a little luck and drew a decent tag this year.  My hunt starts on Sept. 1 so your photos are trying my patience!.....Shawn

Thank for the compliments on the pic's, all.  Steve, the camera is a Canon Powershot SX30 IS, good little camera, just a point and shoot type, nothing fancy.
Shawn Good luck with that tag!  I still have a chance at a tag, not in the unit where any of these deer are, but I have one more chance in the left over draw lottery.
These two were taken at 100 plus yards so the quality isn't great....
