That’s a sweet buck! Even the dog is impressed 🤣

Wanted to share a deadhead and shed I found this past season. I almost got a shot at the deadhead buck the year before but he outsmarted me. Too bad he didn’t outsmart the lion that got him. Hope I can find the buck who dropped the shed. He might have potential to be a goodun.

Unit 1. We thought about doing the youth camp as well but it’s a bit too far for where we like to hunt.
-
Yeah its been awhile since I’ve done one. Last time I did one was back in 2020. I’ll probably try and do another one this year. I’m also thinking on trying to do a velvet coues video this year as well.

Thanks and congrats on the tags. We did pretty good. Got 1 youth elk, 2 youth deer, 2 muzzy deer and 2 rifle coues tags. Should be a fun year for us. Good luck on your hunts man!

What’s more in the realm of fair chase??? A hunter with one tag taking 30 of his buddies with him on his hunt spreading out his glassing army throughout the unit. or A hunter with one tag taking 30 trail cams with him on his hunt spreading out his army of TCs throughout the unit.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think you get 5 or 6 bonus inches when the beams touch or cross like that.

DANG!!! You used up over a years worth of good luck in under 24 hrs. That buck is insane!

Hot n dry where I'm hunting but that's pretty much the norm for the Oct hunt. What I've noticed though is the lack of grass. I've been hunting this area for about 15 years now and I don't think I can remember a year with as bad grass growth as this year. Hunts been ok but antler growth looks to be below average where I'm at but I haven't seen enough bucks to know for sure. These are two of the 3 biggest we've seen so far. Found them this morning. They we're bedded by 8:30 and didn't get up until sundown. 20220726_071927_3_1.mp4

I'll take them. Sending PM.

I would buy it if I had time to drive up and get it. Might have to make it a family trip and go get if if it doesn't sell soon.

I got a hit for archery bull this morning and just got a hit for a youth elk tag sometime after 4pm. There's still hope.

New record Coues ?? Does anyone have the scoop?
OpticNerd replied to no worries's topic in The Campfire
I can't even imagine seeing a buck like that let alone shooting one. Would love to hear how everything went down. -
That's some great footage. How close was he?

That bottom buck is a purdy nice 11 pointer.

Deleted my comment. It didn't have much to do with the topic. I apologize 😔.
