Blacktails and Douglas Fir...my 2015 buck
« on: December 12, 2015, 11:44:00 PM »
I've seen some great bucks the last few weeks, but was never able to get a shot off. Last night I saw a slob of a buck as I came off the hill after dark, so I decided to go back this morning.

It started snowing and I was going to hang out for another 45 minutes and take down my stand so it didn't get snowed in for the winter. I had rattled earlier, so I decided to give it another try. About 10 minutes after I rattled this little forked horn came slipping through. I thought he going to come in front of me from right to left, but he angled up and behind. I had to let him go by before I could get drawn and shoot.

Pretty little blacktail buck.    :thumbsup:

Congrats! Great looking buck and a beautiful setting.
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.
