My 2016 whitetail, my wife brought my daughter up to take pictures so she snuck into one. We didn't care, fun for the whole family. It is a real old 161" gross 9pt with 46" of mass measurements. I have a 73" shed off him from last year with better tines and main beam, but not quite the mass. The Kryptek camo that I used hunting muleys works at home too.

Here's a couple pics of my OR White tail that I was lucky to get a crack at with my Muzzle loader!

Here is my 2016 East Idaho public land whitetail. Took him on Thanksgiving weekend after seeing him 3 other times throughout the season.

4x6 with kicker, rough scored 159". Not big compared to some of the other bucks on here, but for Eastern Idaho, I will take it any day.

rpoutside, you're right, that's a great buck for around there!

OK, I'm locking the thread while we judge the photos. Should have our winner announced this week. Thanks all who posted.

UPDATE 12/26/16 OK Whitetail slayers! We got a better response on this contest than we thought we would, so we upped the ante. Besides the 1st prize- Idaho's Greatest Whitetails-

we added 2nd place:

Larry Benoit's remastered classic: How to Bag the Biggest Buck of Your Life

3rd place:

any shirt (not including hoodies) in stock (including size) from the Rokslide store: CLOTHING – Rokslide Online Store

Rokslide member and Whitetail hunter ChrisS helped Ryan and I narrow down all the entries to the top three:

1st place:

TBoschma! This dude knows how to take a photo as he also placed 2nd in our Mule Deer contest!

For 2nd place:



griffinit! Another Rokslide killer, he had two bucks in this contest, two bulls in the elk contest AND a giant mule deer in that contest, taking Honorable Mention in both those. No Honorable mention here, though, and takes the Benoit book.

And for 3rd place

Devonian's very unique photo. We usually shy away from the bloody ones, but somehow he made this one work. He takes the Rokslide shirt.

All you guys need to email me at [email protected] with your shipping info (and size for the shirt winner) within 10 days (so January 5th) to claim your prizes or I'll move someone else into your slot. Please post up on the thread, too, we want to hear from you!

Thanks and hoping to make this contest even better next year!
