Awesome buck! Congrats on your first whitetail. Since this is in Washington is that considered a Columbian whitetail?

Thanks for the comments guys... Victory Hunter, my buck is probably the O. v. ochrourus subspecies which is a wide spread form of whitetail in the NW - there are lots of them and they are very adaptable - they will live under your back porch if you let them.  The Columbian is a little different subspecies that lives in small pockets around the Columbia River. They are pretty rare.

We have a lot of mule deer in this area as well but the seasons are slightly more restrictive on them as they aren't doing quite as well as the Whitetails.

And yes I AM HOOKED!  I will spend the Nov. rut scouting for next year.

X3 Ya, here in the east we call that an 8 point. Nice Buck, Big congrats. Took me years and years to get over buck fever. Did I say I'm over it......I'm not so sure. Enjoy the triump. BTW  I spine shot my first Buck also, but every one since then has taken one threw the heart or lungs. I wish you the same!

Congratulations Jerry!!

I have to admit I was hoping to see that your buck(8pt BTW) had been stung to death by your JD Berry "Bumblebee" "North Star"...lol

Thanks for sharing not only your trophy but your son with us.
