First buck found him high in the cascades warming up in the sun. 19° that morning and the deer were feeling it!! Nice forky with a big body. Mountain deer are built different. View attachment 619615View attachment 619589

With volleyball pressing us for time in the woods we were able to sneak out a couple evenings and found this guy sneaking around. Daughter strikes again, on to her youth tag now.

Here’s my two from Alaska this last week. These were my first two black tails ever and I’m super pumped about both of them.

That’s awesome! Way to make it work with a busy schedule. I love seeing the kiddos getting it done!

Congrats on two beautiful bucks! Those are both great deer. I absolutely love those Sitka bucks. They’re at the top of my bucket list for sure.

Finally got it done.

The dog is definitely more excited about this one than I am lol. Last light and I thought it was a thick, short racked three point. As soon as it was hit I knew better. It was the first evening of a week long hunt too. Awesome memories with the mutt.

Congrats man. I would be stoked if I were you!

Thanks! I am very happy with it. I do have a little bit of buyer’s remorse though because my hunt was over before it really got started. Might have gone through the whole hunt and not seen another one though and been kicking myself for not taking the opportunity. (That’s what happened last year)

Great bucks.

My wife took this one while I shot with the camera. Meat from the muskeg and vegetables from the garden.

Blessed to punch my tag yesterday. I glassed up a doe and fawn feeding and this guy was trailing about 50 yards behind. It took me about 10 minutes of working into a good position to shoot. The pack out was a bit rough but so worth it.
