Tough to tell, but I saw him again today on my driveway.







Glad to see he made it. He’s one of the bigger bucks I saw this breeding season, so I’ll bet he passed his genes on more than a little.

Trying to get permission to post a pic, but my cousin went out on his first WA blacktail hunt on the 31st, shot a 142" green score buck within 2 hours only a few hundred yard from a busy highway...truly unbelievable luck.

Wa late buck. Third buck killed within 300 yards in this patch of timber. Still hunting the timber ghost is a hunt like no other!
Kinda funny, I saw the 6mm thread here and it inspired me to take a 243 on this hunt.
I slapped this rifle together Tuesday night, load dev Wednesday, cut the barrel to 16" and confirmed zero and load was still good Thursday, drove to WA after wife got off work from Montana, bought lisence/tag in Spokane. 2 hrs sleep.
In the timber at shooting light, killed this buck about 11:30 Friday!
It helps I've hunted that patch for a lot of years!

I have to ask, what on earth possesses you to come to WA from Montana? If I weren’t a WA resident I’d certainly be picking Oregon (I may still go to Oregon in the next couple years). You must know something I don’t! Nonetheless, stellar buck, congratulations!
